Tax Criminal Law

Tax crime defense is a core area of our practice. We advise and represent private individuals, business owners, executives, directors and officers, tax professionals, and companies in German criminal tax investigations and court proceedings.

Tax crime cases combine complex tax law with the procedural risks of criminal investigations. Effective defense therefore requires coordinating criminal, tax, and commercial considerations from the outset. Where appropriate, we work closely with tax advisors and other specialists to develop a comprehensive defense strategy.

We defend clients against allegations of tax evasion and related tax offenses, including cases involving searches, seizures, criminal tax audits, asset-freezing measures, and court proceedings. We also advise on voluntary self-disclosures and the criminal-law risks associated with incomplete, late, or ineffective disclosures.

Early legal advice can be decisive. Contact us before making any statement, submitting documents, or providing information to tax authorities, investigators, or public prosecutors.
