About
Provided by Dotti Advogados
Dotti Advogados' Criminal Law practice area is mainly dedicated to defending against accusations of committing crimes against individuals and/or legal entities.
The defense should start, whenever possible, from the investigative phase, which normally takes place in a police investigation or before the Public Ministry.
Only in this way will lawyers be fully able to study the case and provide the authorities involved with the best explanations.
Then, criminal action may include representation before the Judiciary, which includes defense in a judicial process that begins in 1st instance and can reach up to the Superior Courts.
In addition, the firm has a strong role in representing victims of crime.
Citizens who are victims of crimes may have their interests defended by a criminal lawyer, who will act as an assistant to the Public Ministry, that is, acting jointly with the Public Prosecution.
