White Collar Criminal Law
Criminal Law has endured significant changes in the last decades. Alongside with traditional crimes,such as those commited against life, physical integrity, honor and wealth, the Law has included an additional wide range of crimes usually known as White Collar Criminal Law.
Despite such laws being related to corporate life, they also relate to people's lives, hence its criminal status. Directors, managers, producers and any business players acting within the marketplace, in general, are facing a harder framework regarding prevention and repression.
At ROGÉRIO ALVES & ASSOCIADOS - LAW FIRM we provide legal advice in this Practice Area, which is one of the main legal areas within the services we provide.
