Martin Pradel and Aloïs Blin co-head our White-collar crime & Internal investigations’ practice.

Our lawyers advise corporate companies, company directors and employees in connection with the criminal risks and liabilities that they face in the course of their business and professional activities.

They boast a cutting-edge expertise in criminal proceedings related to the misappropriation of corporate assets, fraud, extortion and money laundering, corruption, bribery and other ethical violations (influence peddling, illegal interest-taking, favoritism).

Our team has niche capabilities in proceedings relating to employer-specific ESG duties and liabilities and offers expert services in matters of harassment and psychosocial risks, involuntary manslaughter, unintentional injuries and life endangerment, risk prevention vis-à-vis employees and consumers, and damage to the environment.

Our team also has significant experience in cases involving reputation damages (defamation, insult, right of reply).

Lastly, we advise companies on triggering and implementing internal investigations, in particular after a whistleblower report has been issued. We assist companies in submittingreports when these are requested by the courts. We also assist company directors and employees in the exercise of their specific “rights of defence” in the context of internal investigations.
