Protecting Lawful Rights and Interests – Controlling Legal Risks – Providing Comprehensive Legal Support Throughout Criminal Proceedings
In criminal cases, in addition to suspects, defendants, and victims, there are often individuals or organizations whose rights and obligations are directly affected by the criminal proceedings. These may include persons whose assets are seized, frozen, or subject to dispute; parties involved in related transactions; or individuals and businesses whose legal rights and obligations are connected to the criminal case.
In practice, many persons with related rights and obligations do not fully understand their legal status under Vietnamese criminal procedure law. As a result, they may unintentionally provide unfavorable statements, submit documents improperly, or participate in proceedings without adequate legal protection, thereby exposing themselves to unnecessary legal risks.
Early involvement of an experienced criminal lawyer is essential for protecting assets, reputation, and lawful interests, while also minimizing the risk of legal liability, reputational damage, or adverse impacts on business operations.
At DAI & PARTNERS, we provide comprehensive legal services for persons with related rights and obligations in criminal cases in Vietnam. Our lawyers accompany clients throughout all stages of criminal proceedings, including investigation, prosecution, trial, and post-litigation legal matters.
When Should You Hire a Lawyer for Persons with Related Rights and Obligations?
You should seek legal assistance if you:
Are summoned by investigation authorities in connection with a criminal case
Have assets that are seized, frozen, attached, or disputed in criminal proceedings
Are involved in financial transactions, contracts, or legal relationships connected to an accused person
Are concerned that your statements or submitted documents may create legal risks
Need to protect ownership rights or civil interests in a criminal case
Require legal representation before investigation authorities, the Procuracy, or the Court
Wish to participate in court proceedings to protect your lawful rights and interests
