Legal Defense in Tax Criminal Cases
In recent years, the Danish Tax Agency has markedly intensified its audits and criminal investigations. As a consequence, both corporate entities and private individuals are increasingly confronted with indictments for alleged tax or duty evasion, carrying the risk of substantial fines and, in certain circumstances, custodial sentences.
In such matters, it is imperative to secure qualified legal representation from counsel with specific expertise in tax and duty criminal law. Bachmann/Partners possesses extensive experience in this field and has for many years provided effective defense and strategic guidance to clients in tax-related criminal proceedings.
When Can a Defense Counsel Be Appointed?
A defense counsel can be appointed when:
- The nature of the case makes it desirable—for example, if the case is complex
- The personal circumstances of the accused justify it—for example, age, illness, or social challenges
- Other circumstances indicate a need for assistance—for example, if there is a conflict with the Tax Administration, or if the case may have serious consequences beyond fines and penalties
Ultimately, it is the court that decides whether there is a basis for appointing a defense counsel.
However, you always have the right to choose to have an attorney assist you as a privately retained defense counsel.
Why Is Legal Assistance Important?
It is often crucial to involve an experienced attorney. A defense counsel can:
- Ensure that the Danish Tax Agency complies with the applicable rules,
- Assist in preparing explanations and documentation
- Negotiate fines, including arguing for statute of limitations or mitigating circumstances, and
- Assess whether the case should be brought before the courts
Early legal assistance can be crucial for the outcome of the case—both financially and personally.
