Ethics, deontology and public criminal law

Over many years, UGGC Avocats has developed recognized expertise in dealing with the criminal, ethical, deontological and disciplinary constraints and risks incurred by public managers and, where applicable, their public or private partners.

Constant support

With the support of its public and disciplinary criminal law team, UGGC Avocats advises its public and private-sector clients on the implementation of prudential measures designed to secure their practices and protect their managers and executives: criminal risk audits, formalization of best practice guides or codes of ethics, etc.

From the outset of proceedings, the firm also assists corporate bodies and individuals (corporate officers, elected representatives, executives, civil servants and other public service employees) involved in disciplinary proceedings (Court of Auditors Litigation Chamber, Financial Court of Appeal) or criminal proceedings (offences of favoritism, misappropriation of public funds, misappropriation of funds, illegal interest-taking, corrupt practices, forgery, harassment, non-intentional offences, etc.), as well as in budgetary, financial and accounting control procedures.
