Frequently asked questions
What clients ask us most
What is the difference between fraud and breach of contract?
In fraud, the deception exists from the outset and causes the victim to hand over money or assets. If the intention to perform was genuine and the breach came later, the dispute is usually civil. This distinction decides many cases.
From what amount is tax fraud a crime?
When the evaded tax exceeds 120,000 euros per tax and period. Below that figure, the conduct is penalised administratively under the General Tax Act.
Can a company be convicted?
Yes, for offences where the law expressly provides for it. An effective compliance programme in place before the events can exempt the company from liability or reduce it.
How long does the investigation phase last?
The law sets twelve months from the opening of the investigation, extendable for equal periods when the judge justifies it. In complex cases, the strategy must be planned for that horizon.
