Criminal and Civil Disputes

Criminal Law

Criminal law? It applies to legal entities, too.

Criminal law extends beyond you as a citizen. It is also omnipresent in a business environment. There is hardly any legislation that does not provide for criminal penalties if you fail to comply with it. You may encounter it as a victim or as an alleged perpetrator—individually, as an employee, manager, or director; or as a legal entity, company, or association itself.

We look at the big picture

Crauwels Advocaten is not a niche law firm. We are well-versed in a variety of fields. And we like to look beyond the strictly legal aspects. What impact does a particular criminal law action have on other areas?

We also bring together various disciplines under one roof. This makes it easy to draw connections to corporate law, environmental law, real estate law, labor law, and other practice areas. You’ll gain better and more incisive insights that will be useful for your criminal case.
