Criminal lawyers and emergency defense

Receiving a summons, being interviewed, being arrested, facing detention, or having family members send someone to a detention center—the immediate handling of these situations can affect the entire case.

Criminal cases don't begin until indictment. Police questioning, interviews by the Investigation Bureau or the Agency Against Corruption, interrogations by the District Prosecutor's Office, searches and seizures, arrests, detention hearings, and criminal court proceedings can all determine the direction of a case in a very short time. Our firm assists in criminal cases in Taipei, New Taipei, and Taoyuan, providing timely and strategic criminal defense, from emergency accompaniment during investigations and detention hearings to major economic crime defense and legal battles.

In an emergency, please prioritize addressing "personal freedom" and "the first written statement."

If someone has already been taken away by the police, suddenly arrested, their family has been notified by the district prosecutor's office, a detention hearing is in progress, or they are already in a detention center, the key is not to first search through a lot of articles, but to immediately let the lawyer know the cause of action, location, time, handling unit, and current procedures.

The first statement taken in a criminal case often becomes a crucial foundation for subsequent prosecution and trial. Whether to make a statement, how to make a statement, which questions should be left unanswered, and which evidence should be presented immediately all need to be determined before the interrogation begins.

Please prepare this information first.

  • Photographs of notices, summonses, arrest warrants, search warrants, or court documents.
  • The person is in a police station, investigation bureau, anti-corruption agency, district prosecutor's office, court, or detention center.
  • Charges: fraud, money laundering, embezzlement, breach of trust, banking law, securities law, or other offenses.
  • Whether they have been restricted from residing, released on bail, detained, prohibited from seeing, or held in custody.
  • Current court hearing, interrogation, or detention hearing times.
Emergency Criminal Rescue

Major criminal cases and high-risk cases

Our firm focuses on handling major, complex, and high-risk criminal cases.

Major criminal cases are usually not just single legal issues; they also involve cash flow, corporate governance, accounting records, investment contracts, transaction backgrounds, government procurement, or financial oversight. Fidelity's strength lies in handling criminal proceedings alongside commercial law, financial documents, contracts, and evidence preparation within the same strategy.

01

Corruption laws and crimes committed by public officials

Handling cases involving bribery, offering bribes, profiteering, government procurement, kickbacks, and consideration for official duties; assisting with interrogation, detention court proceedings, and trial negotiations.

02

Banking Law, Securities Exchange Law and Financial Cases

Handling cases involving illegal fundraising, unauthorized capital raising, false financial statements under securities laws, insider trading, investment fraud, disputes over financial products, and investigation of cash flow.

03

Major fraud and financial fraud

In cases involving organized fraud, investment scams, cryptocurrencies, money laundering, nominee accounts, or cross-border fund flows, we assist in clarifying roles, subjective intent, and evidence connections.

04

Breach of trust, embezzlement and corporate crime

Handling criminal cases involving senior executives, shareholders, financial personnel, or trustees of the company, involving special breach of trust, embezzlement, trade secrets, and disputes over company assets.

05

Commercial accounting law and financial statement misrepresentation

In response to false vouchers, inaccurate financial statements, fake transactions, and discrepancies in accounting entries and fund flows, defensive facts and legal arguments should be identified from accounting documents.

06

Detention, incommunicado and appeal

When a prosecutor applies for detention, they need to quickly prepare a defense for detention hearings, bail for release, charge, and alternative solutions for restricted residence, and assess appeals and subsequent remedies.

Emergency Criminal Defense

Police questioning, investigation, detention court, and detention center—each stage has different defense priorities.

Criminal cases often come suddenly: you might be summoned in the morning and interrogated that afternoon, or the prosecutor might request your detention immediately after questioning you. The more urgent the situation, the less you can rely on on-the-spot reactions. Lawyers must first grasp the facts of the case, the evidence, the possible charges, and the procedural risks before deciding how to present their case, whether to remain silent, and whether to present favorable evidence.

Criminal case handling process

From the very first phone call, an investigation and trial strategy must be established.

Confirm where the person is and what procedure they are currently in.

First, determine whether the person is at a police station, investigation bureau, agency against corruption, district prosecutor's office, court, or detention center; whether they have been summoned for questioning, arrested, searched and interrogated, detained in court, or have already been indicted.

Mastering the charges, evidence, and risks associated with confessions

Identify potential charges of fraud, money laundering, breach of trust, corruption, banking law, securities law, or other offenses, and assess existing documents, financial records, and communication records.

Attendance, visitation, or detention court defense

Depending on the urgency, lawyers will be arranged to accompany the parties during interrogations, visits to detention centers, and court appearances in custody, in order to prevent the parties from making unfavorable statements under high-pressure circumstances.

Provide favorable evidence and legal opinions

During the investigation, statements, answers, evidence, financial statements, company documents, or professional analyses can be submitted to try to secure a decision not to prosecute, a deferred prosecution, or bail.

Trial Offenses and Appeal Strategies

If the case goes to the criminal court, it is necessary to organize the case file, the points of contention, the witness cross-examination, the direction of acquittal or sentence reduction, and to assess the appeal and subsequent remedies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Criminal Lawyer FAQ

When should you hire a criminal lawyer if you are notified by the police, summoned by the district prosecutor's office, or suddenly arrested?

The earlier the better. The initial statement, search and seizure, arrest, and prosecutor's questioning often influence the direction of subsequent investigations. It is recommended to discuss the boundaries of testimony, the right to remain silent, and evidence strategy with a criminal lawyer before going to the police station, investigation bureau, agency against corruption, or district prosecutor's office.

What can a lawyer do if a family member is detained or sent to a detention center?

Lawyers can arrange meetings, understand the direction of the investigation, prepare defense arguments for detention hearings, apply for bail to suspend detention, appeal, or subsequently lift the ban on visits. Detention cases are very time-sensitive and usually require immediate processing.

Can you provide assistance with serious criminal cases, corruption, banking law, securities trading law, or major fraud cases?

Yes. Our firm handles major criminal cases, including those related to the Anti-Corruption Act, the Banking Act, the Securities and Exchange Act, the Commercial Accounting Act, major fraud, financial fraud, the Money Laundering Control Act, special breach of trust, embezzlement, and criminal cases involving senior corporate executives.

Do criminal cases require a lawyer to be appointed only after charges have been filed?

Not recommended. The investigation stage of a criminal case is often the most crucial. A lawyer can assist in gathering favorable evidence, avoiding unfavorable statements, and preparing a defense or statement of defense to strive for non-prosecution, deferred prosecution, bail, or reduce the risks of subsequent trials.

A criminal case is currently underway; please have a lawyer assess the procedural risks first.

Please prepare the summons, notice, search warrant, detention-related documents, case details, location, and the date of the next interrogation or court hearing. Timing is especially important if the person is already at the police station, prosecutor's office, court, or detention center.
