Practice areas
-
Barssie Avocats, a firm dedicated to criminal law, rigorously advises and defends suspects and defendants (adults and minors) as well as victims of crime at every stage of criminal proceedings.
-
Barssie Avocats also handles white-collar crime cases, defending companies, executives and individuals prosecuted for economic and financial offences.
-
When a minor is involved in criminal proceedings, whether as a suspect or as a victim, a specific legal framework applies. Juvenile criminal law rests on particular principles that balance responsibility and protection, with procedures adapted to the young person’s age and situation. The assistance of a lawyer experienced in juvenile criminal law is essential to ensure an effective defence.
-
Barssie Avocats stands alongside healthcare professionals facing criminal prosecution or who are victims of offences in the course of their work. Medical criminal law is a complex field in which legal, ethical and professional issues are intertwined. Faced with accusations that can seriously damage their career and reputation, doctors, surgeons, anaesthetists and other healthcare professionals need a rigorous defence tailored to their situation.
-
Barssie Avocats advises and defends prisoners throughout the execution of their sentence, ensuring that their fundamental rights are respected. Criminal defence does not end with the trial: it must continue inside prisons to guarantee decent conditions of detention and the fair application of court decisions.
-
Barssie Avocats assists many convicted persons in applying for sentence adjustments and the merging of sentences, in order to support a gradual return to freedom and optimise the way sentences are served.
-
Barssie Avocats advises and defends members of regulated and liberal professions, including lawyers, doctors, notaries, bailiffs and other professions bound by strict ethical rules, when they face disciplinary proceedings, ethics inspections or professional disputes before their professional bodies. The stakes are high: these proceedings can engage the professional’s liability, damage their reputation and, in some cases, call into question their very right to practise.
