The criminal tax field encompasses response to investigation and criminal trials of tax offenses prescribed by the Tax Criminal Punishment Act of Korea. If a tax offense is noticed and an investigation is launched against the alleged offense, an action of notification or a charge might be taken or filed against the alleged offender. The alleged offender needs to respond appropriately to each process from the beginning of investigation to a criminal trial. Since criminal tax matters are subject to both the criminal and tax laws, systematic assistance from experts with legal knowledge and practical experience in terms of the tax and criminal laws is required to achieve the best result.
