Under suspicion of fraud?

We take immediate action to protect your private and business interests.

If you’ve reached an impasse in your talks with the tax authorities or you’re suspected of fraud − and definitely if the Public Prosecution Service is hot on your heels − what you need most of all is a safe haven, a place where you can tell your side of the story and where someone takes immediate action to protect your private and business interests.

What drives us

We fight for justice and to protect your reputation.

What does it mean to ‘win’ a court case? More often than not, the damage has been done and the best we can do is to minimise your losses. There’s usually a lot at stake in terms of financial interests. And just as importantly: we fight for justice and to protect your reputation. That’s what motivates us to do our utmost for our clients. That’s why we leap to your defence.

What’s the goal and how do we achieve it?

The issue may be complex,
but our strategy is crystal-clear.

We’re always honest about the likelihood of success and a client's options. The issue might be complex, but the strategy should be crystal-clear. What’s our goal and how do we plan to achieve it? What’s realistic? Sticking to your principles could cost you dearly. And there’s no such thing as a guarantee. Our clients deserve the best defence and they have a right to know what they’re up against.

Dispute with the tax authorities

If you have a disagreement with the tax authorities, what you’re looking for is professional support, so that you don’t have to think about the issue all the time. We can help, for instance when you expect to end up in a dispute because the tax authorities won’t stop asking questions or when you’re already embroiled in a dispute and you don’t see a way out. We have the professional distance to help you determine your next step. Whether it be engaging with the tax authorities to explore potential solutions or taking them to court, up to the highest instance if need be. We offer customised legal services, harnessing our experience in bringing tax disputes to a successful conclusion for clients. If the tax authorities threaten to impose penalties, you’ll be even more hard-pressed for legal counsel. We can help you devise a strategy and develop a defence based on our experience with penalty and criminal law.
