Criminal defense in offenses against the right to work

Offenses against the right to work comprise conduct that affects workers’ rights and legal obligations in the employment sphere. Their investigation requires a technical analysis of the employment relationship and the available evidence.

At TREU Abogados we represent both affected workers and persons under investigation, with strategies aimed at clarifying the facts and protecting our clients’ rights.

Frequently asked questions

What clients usually ask us

Can a labor breach have criminal consequences?

Certain conduct, expressly provided for by law, may give rise to criminal liability. Each case must be analyzed.

What should I do if I receive a summons from the Prosecutor’s Office to give a statement?

It is advisable to obtain legal advice before appearing. The statement you give may affect the course of the investigation, so it is important to understand beforehand your rights and the legal implications of each step.

At what stage can a lawyer intervene?

Early intervention is often decisive. Having counsel from the preliminary investigation allows timely strategic decisions, the preservation of evidence and the proper protection of the client’s rights throughout the proceeding.
