The clarification reads:
We hereby present you this clarification note.
Each profession, as long as it is practised with passion and responsibility, entails risks that are not always possible to control.
Our activity as lawyers, whether individually or within the scope of the LTCF – LAW FIRM, for more than 24 years, has always been developed with enormous responsibility and commitment which has been recognized by our clients, partners and throughout the legal field. A solid client base, recognized successes, awards and a great satisfaction for accomplishments have been the most gratifying acknowledgments of our work.
Last week, as you probably know, one of our associates was made a defendant in a criminal proceeding. Although we sure of are his innocence, as he was a victim of some very particular circumstances, the secrecy of the investigation obliges us not to address this matter in detail.
In spite of the “presumption of innocence” principle, these processes made public prematurely have the immediate consequence of creating an unjustified suspicion about people or entities that have not been charged with anything.
Fortunately, our history and excellent relationship of trust with our clients, partners and colleagues is sufficiently strong for us to have received numerous support and solidarity messages to our company and all its associates, in particular to the involved associate.
We would like to emphasize our appreciation of your support and ensure that assure you will continue to make an absolutely honest, committed and rigorous effort to defend the interests of all our clients.
Thank you once again for your attention and trust.
