VBB Rechtsanwälte looks after a client base consisting of medium-sized and DAX companies, which the team advises not only on white-collar crime matters but also on criminal tax law, as was recently demonstrated by its assistance with high-profile proceedings related to cum-ex and the DFB summer fairytale. Founding partner and white-collar crime and criminal tax expert Marcus Böttger‘s advice, who in addition to cum-ex also handled proceedings relating to the Dieselgate complex, mirrors the practice cornerstones. Defense against criminal tax allegations is also part of Sebastian Beckschäfer’s portfolio, while Hjalmar Mahn is one of the key contacts for criminal capital market and IT law and experienced in defending auditors and tax consultants, and Matthias Brockhaus is called upon to advise on property and corruption offenses. Sven Diener focuses on criminal competition and foreign trade law as well as on criminal sports law. Competencies in criminal compliance and internal investigations complement this offering.
