The analysis of risks associated with company activities is part of legal prevention activities. It is an activity that allows for timely intervention to prevent companies from incurring violations and penalties in the areas of taxation, finance, and anti-money laundering.
We strongly believe that preventing problems is important for businesses, which is why our team of professionals at the law firm analyzes existing company safeguards and performs a risk assessment with the aim of verifying the scope of actual risks, in order to proactively identify areas of error or uncertainty and address any potential scrutiny by the relevant authorities in advance.
In a preventive perspective, the adoption of Model 231 is particularly helpful to protect the company from the risk of penalties under Legislative Decree 231/2001, concerning the liability of entities for certain crimes.
The adoption of the Organizational Model 231 occurs following a thorough risk assessment process.
The intertwining and overlap between tax and criminal matters, where financial penalties risk being compounded with criminal sanctions, precautionary seizures, and confiscations, require highly specialized legal defense. A tax lawyer must also be well-versed in criminal law. A unified approach is necessary for an effective and successful strategy, taking into account the commonalities and, most importantly, the differences between criminal and tax proceedings.
Stufano Law Firm is one of the few capable of simultaneously managing both types of defense.
Attorney Stufano has twenty-five years of experience in criminal defense for tax and financial crimes, which includes assistance during the preliminary investigation phase, conducting defensive investigations, defense during personal and property precautionary measures (in cases involving restrictions on personal freedom, asset seizures, etc.), assistance and defense during the preliminary hearing, choosing the most appropriate legal procedure for the specific case, and representing clients during the trial. Additionally, Attorney Stufano’s past experience as an officer in the Guardia di Finanza in Milan from 1993 to 1996 involved coordinating judicial and operational activities, as well as conducting judicial and tax police investigations in the well-known “Mani Pulite” proceeding.
