Technical assistance and defence of suspects and defendants, from the precautionary phase to trial and appeals.
Technical assistance for suspects, defendants and injured parties. The Firm starts from the case file, assesses precautionary, evidentiary and financial risk, and builds a strategy consistent with the specific case.
When a criminal-law document arrives, time matters.
Questioning, search, seizure or a precautionary measure cannot be handled with generic answers. The document must be read, deadlines understood and a line chosen immediately.
Summons to appear
Review of the document, verification of the purpose of the summons and assessment of the procedural conduct to adopt.
Property measuresSearch or seizure
Review of the measure, protection of assets and assessment of practical remedies.
Personal libertyArrest or precautionary measure
Urgent assistance for validation hearing, review, precautionary appeal, revocation or replacement of the measure.
Injured partyCriminal complaint or dismissal
Drafting of the complaint, evidentiary supplements and objection to a dismissal request.
Every criminal-law matter requires precise framing.
From investigations to precautionary measures, from protection of the injured party to appeals, each choice is assessed on the basis of the case file and procedural position.
Defence of the suspect and defendant
Preliminary investigations, questioning, defence briefs, alternative procedures, trial and appeals.
Protection of the injured party
Criminal complaints, objections to dismissal, civil-party claims and compensation-related protection.
Precautionary measures
Arrest, validation hearing, review, precautionary appeal, revocation, replacement and property measures.
Offences against the person
Bodily harm, threats, stalking, domestic abuse, private violence and Code Red proceedings.
Property offences
Fraud, misappropriation, theft, robbery, extortion and criminal damage.
Digital fraud and online investments
Fake trading platforms, crypto scams, wallets, digital payments and suspicious financial movements.
Corporate and tax offences
Directors’ liability, bankruptcy offences, false statements, omitted payments and business-related allegations.
Case-file first. Strategy second.
Defence is not a sequence of standard formalities. Every procedural choice requires technical reading, risk assessment and a concrete procedural objective.
Case-file analysis
Notices, minutes, orders, medical reports, statements, seizure records and documents are organised and read before any line is indicated.
Risk assessment
Precautionary risk, evidentiary risk, financial exposure and personal or reputational impact are assessed separately.
Choice of strategy
Defence brief, questioning, application, alternative procedure, trial or appeal are selected on the basis of the case file, not automatically.
Clear communication
The client must know timing, procedural steps, limits and scenarios without improper promises or artificial expectations.

Essential answers. No standard formula.
Can I send documents before the consultation?
Yes. It is useful to send the document received, any notices, minutes, medical reports or main documents. A technical assessment still requires examination of the specific case and, where necessary, formal engagement.
In urgent matters, is it better to call?
Yes. For arrest, search, seizure, precautionary measure or imminent hearing, telephone contact is preferable.
Do the published guides replace legal advice?
No. They are intended to guide the first step. Defence strategy depends on the case file, deadlines, available evidence and procedural position.
Send a request starting from the available documents.
For arrest, search, seizure, precautionary measure or imminent hearing, telephone contact is preferable. For ordinary requests, you may send a concise description and indicate which documents are available.
