Internal Investigation & Crossborder Proceedings
We draw on many years of experience with internal company investigations for the comprehensive elucidation and clear-up of incidents with a potential liability impact or criminal background. In this context, we provide advisory services and conduct independent investigations on behalf of governing bodies or supervisory authorities.
We have assisted clients, in particular, with investigations involving directors' and officers' liability, violations of domestic and foreign supervisory regulation, as well as alleged violations of domestic and foreign anti-corruption laws (such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, FCPA).
The core competence of our team specializing in crossborder proceedings comprises matters of international legal assistance in both civil and criminal cases. Furthermore, we advise and represent clients in respect of international administrative assistance proceedings in the fields of financial market supervision and of taxation.
We also advise our clients on issues of secrecy laws and sovereignty-related restrictions in connection with international data transfers (trade secret, bank secrecy, data protection, employment law, illicit operations for a foreign state, industrial espionnage).
Our team provides advice and assistance, inter alia, in the following areas:
Internal investigations and conduct of independent investigations on behalf of governing bodies or supervisory authorities
Internal antitrust investigations and audits
