Compliance & Investigations

A stitch in time saves nine

The existence and enforcement of strong compliance policies are the keys to effective corporate risk management. We advise clients from a variety of industries on Bulgaria’s regulatory requirements and work closely with them to prepare, implement, and monitor tailor-made compliance programs aimed at a practical, business-minded, and effective pre-emption of risks. Our lawyers provide risk analyses and assist on crisis management and internal investigations to mitigate damage and manage liability arising from corporate compliance issues.
