Litigation & White Collar Crime:
CRIDO Legal’s litigation and white collar crime practice focuses on clients’ business aims, not the dispute itself. This demanding approach requires creativity and devotion to the case. The experience gained by preparing and executing complex dispute strategies in commercial disputes, representing clients in criminal matters, as well as protecting them against potential liability by implementing and monitoring compliance procedures, makes the practice unique and extremely business-oriented. The strategies created by CRIDO Legal’s lawyers usually reach abroad, so the proceeding matrixes are complex, but co-ordinated properly to successfully solve even the most complicated issues.
