Defence of collective fund manager against aggravated fraud claims. We defended the collective fund manager Pandero in a criminal complaint for aggravated fraud filed by Kaly Del Aguila Perea, one of its former employees. The counterparty alleges that the client’s general manager and four other employees refused to pay a debt in its favour and have not recognised the payment for advertisement services made to Pandero.
Complaint filed as response to information over WCC: The complaint was filed after our client informed the authorities that the counterparty committed several white-collar crimes (WCC), including fraud and fraudulent misrepresentation.
Successful swift closing of case: We represented all the client’s employees involved before the investigating authority and secured a swift closing of the case. The case was shelved, and we were able to prevent any contingency for the client’s general manager and employees.
Undermining arguments supporting illicit economic demands: This case is relevant to our client as the counterparty has been seeking illicit economic demands from our client. The outcome of this case was an important step in undermining one of the counterparty’s strongest arguments and, thereby, protecting the client’s reputation and prestige in the national market built over 56 years.
Latest development: The case was successfully closed in favour of our client.
