White Collar Crime

in

White-collar crime, also known as economic crime can include a wide range of crimes involving commercial companies and corporate sector employees, including fraud, bribery, money laundering, tax evasion and other forms of theft and corruption.

White-collar criminal proceedings can span multiple jurisdictions and prove to be extremely complex.
