White-Collar Crime

About

Provided by August Debouzy

Our white-collar team has developed recognized expertise in handling difficult cases with

significant political and media implications. We defend companies, executives, and prominent

public figures who are under investigation, facing prosecution, or acting as civil parties in

complex cases involving various types of economic offenses (insider trading, corruption,

misuse of corporate assets, money laundering, market manipulation, tax fraud, and international

sanctions).

Our experience in internal investigations and transnational proceedings, combined with our

robust network of partner firms, enables us to support our clients in sensitive cases abroad. Our

team operates before French criminal courts as well as before foreign prosecuting authorities

(such as the Department of Justice and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network in the United

States, and the Serious Fraud Office in the United Kingdom). We conduct internal investigations

and defend our clients before courts and regulatory bodies both in France and internationally.

As experts on cutting-edge issues, our team assists clients in negotiated justice cases

involving breaches of probity and environmental criminal law, a field in which our lawyers have

contributed to the signing of major Judicial Public Interest Agreements (CJIP) with the National

Financial Prosecutor’s Office.
