We were able to substantially reduce the scope of the allegations and bring the case to a close with a penalty order imposing a monetary fine.     <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-36d40c0 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"36d40c0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-803190d elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-view-stacked elementor-hidden-mobile elementor-shape-circle elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon\" data-id=\"803190d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon\">\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" height=\"64\" viewBox=\"0 0 64 64\" width=\"64\"><g id=\"Guide\"><\/g><g id=\"Layer_1\"><path d=\"m21.5 30.9h20.6v13h-20.6z\" fill=\"#885b00\"><\/path><path d=\"m49.3 42.4-17.3-3.5-17.3 3.5c-1.4.3-2.5 1.4-2.9 2.7l-3 11.9h46.4l-3-11.8c-.4-1.4-1.5-2.5-2.9-2.8z\" fill=\"#c6c5c1\"><\/path><path d=\"m32 45.4c-3 0-5.3-2.4-5.3-5.3v-4.8c0-3 2.4-5.3 5.3-5.3 3 0 5.3 2.4 5.3 5.3v4.8c0 2.9-2.3 5.3-5.3 5.3z\" fill=\"#f4c77f\"><\/path><path d=\"m32 30.9c-3 0-5.3 2.4-5.3 5.3 0 0 3.5 3.7 5.3 3.7s3.6-.2 5.3-.7v-3.1c0-2.8-2.3-5.2-5.3-5.2z\" fill=\"#dbb175\"><\/path><path d=\"m31.9 39.6c-6.6 0-12-5.4-12-12v-5.3c0-6.6 5.4-12 12-12 6.6 0 12 5.4 12 12v5.3c0 6.6-5.4 12-12 12z\" fill=\"#f4c77f\"><\/path><path d=\"m37.3 40-5.3 5-5.3-5-1.8.3 2.8 16.7h4.3 4.3l2.8-16.7z\" fill=\"#f1f2f2\"><\/path><path d=\"m26.7 40 5.3 5-3.5 3-3.6-7.7z\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><path d=\"m37.3 40-5.3 5 3.5 3 3.6-7.7z\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><path d=\"m21.8 41-2.6 5.1 3.1 1.9-1.5 2.1 3.3 6.9h3.6l-2.8-16.7z\" fill=\"#e8e8e6\"><\/path><path d=\"m42.2 41 2.6 5.1-3.1 1.9 1.5 2.1-3.3 6.9h-3.6l2.8-16.7z\" fill=\"#e8e8e6\"><\/path><circle cx=\"32\" cy=\"49.7\" fill=\"#fff\" r=\".8\"><\/circle><circle cx=\"32\" cy=\"54.1\" fill=\"#fff\" r=\".8\"><\/circle><path d=\"m35.4 17.4c-3.4 1-10 1.2-12 5.9s0 27.6 0 27.6-6.4-.6-6.4-14.4.7-21.9 5.1-26.3c4.9-4.9 15.3-3.7 16.8 0 .2 0 .9 6-3.5 7.2z\" fill=\"#b57900\"><\/path><path d=\"m40.5 23.4c2 4.8-.3 27.6-.3 27.6s6.4-.6 6.4-14.4-.8-24.3-6.4-27.1c-2.9-1.5-5.7 1-4.9 4.9.6 2.6 3.2 4.2 5.2 9z\" fill=\"#b57900\"><\/path><path d=\"m37 17.6s2.6-1.7 2-5.7c0 0 .2 3.2-2.5 5.1z\" fill=\"#885b00\"><\/path><\/g><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f7fed48 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f7fed48\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-80266de elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"80266de\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Case Study 3: Investigation Into Fictitious Invoices at a Construction Company<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7d3e661 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7d3e661\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The client, the managing director of a construction company, faced allegations of having made extensive use of fictitious invoices from third-party companies. According to the investigators, these invoices were used to withdraw cash that was then used to pay workers off the books. The company\u2019s offices were searched, and the authorities aimed to trace the payment flows to the third-party companies in order to prove that the funds were actually used for undeclared work. However, only a few subcontractors could be identified, and many of the workers could not be traced at all. As a result, the investigation was taken over by the tax authorities. The key issue in the proceedings was whether it could be established which specific invoices were fictitious. Because the evidence remained too uncertain and the company\u2019s business operations were otherwise largely lawful, the proceedings were eventually discontinued.       <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9525a90 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"9525a90\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f2fd681 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f2fd681\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-73af162 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"73af162\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Effective Criminal Defense for Your Case<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c512b28 elementor-widget__width-initial mb-0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c512b28\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If you have already received a summons, legal representation is indispensable.

The situations involved are highly diverse. Allegations frequently arise in connection with the use of subcontractors. If these fail to comply with their tax obligations, the question often arises as to whether the contractor may be held liable. Investigative authorities are quick to answer this in the affirmative and often assume far-reaching agreements allegedly aimed at carrying out undeclared work.    <\/p><p>Another frequent allegation is that the reported working hours of officially registered employees are understated. Investigators often suspect that the employees actually perform additional work, which is supposedly paid in cash. In such cases, the allegations typically involve both tax evasion and the withholding of social security contributions. To disguise the cash payments, fictitious invoices are often used.   <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<details id=\"e-n-accordion-item-1242\" class=\"e-n-accordion-item\" >\n\t\t\t\t<summary class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title\" data-accordion-index=\"3\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"e-n-accordion-item-1242\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-header'><div class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title-text\"> \u00a7 266a StGB: Withholding of Social Security Contributions <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-icon'>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-opened' ><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"27\" height=\"27\" viewBox=\"0 0 27 27\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M1 13H26\" stroke=\"black\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"><\/path><path d=\"M13 1L13 26\" stroke=\"black\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-closed'><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"27\" height=\"27\" viewBox=\"0 0 27 27\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M1 13H26\" stroke=\"black\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"><\/path><path d=\"M13 1L13 26\" stroke=\"black\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1242\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c230933 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c230933\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1242\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b085a4c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"b085a4c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f6a9a50 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f6a9a50\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>From the perspective of the investigative authorities, if employees have been paid \u201coff the books,\u201d this also gives rise to a suspicion of an offence under \u00a7 266a of the German Criminal Code (StGB). The reason is that where wages are paid in cash, the required registration with the social security system is usually omitted. The withholding of statutory social security contributions constitutes a separate and often serious offence.

At an early stage, a criminal procedural seizure order may also be imposed, freezing bank accounts and assets.   <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<details id=\"e-n-accordion-item-9131\" class=\"e-n-accordion-item\" >\n\t\t\t\t<summary class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title\" data-accordion-index=\"2\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"e-n-accordion-item-9131\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-header'><div class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title-text\"> What Are the Penalties for Undeclared Work? <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-icon'>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-opened' ><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"27\" height=\"27\" viewBox=\"0 0 27 27\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M1 13H26\" stroke=\"black\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"><\/path><path d=\"M13 1L13 26\" stroke=\"black\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-closed'><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"27\" height=\"27\" viewBox=\"0 0 27 27\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M1 13H26\" stroke=\"black\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"><\/path><path d=\"M13 1L13 26\" stroke=\"black\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-9131\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a7877f7 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"a7877f7\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-9131\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9fb06f4 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"9fb06f4\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9886074 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9886074\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Of course, the penalty always depends on the circumstances of the individual case.

Naturally, there are no official records of the work performed. Investigators therefore have to determine the scope of the allegedly performed services in other ways. In the construction industry, this is often done by relying on industry experience and the type of work completed.   <\/p><p>In some cases, however, this is also done by way of estimates. These are based, for example, on a company\u2019s revenues, from which a wage ratio is then estimated. This ratio in turn serves as the basis for further calculations of the tax loss. The Federal Court of Justice (BGH) accepts such a flat-rate calculation in principle, provided that its underlying assumptions are comprehensible. A wage ratio of two-thirds of net revenue in the construction industry is generally not objected to.    <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b7d2c24 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b7d2c24\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d42133 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"2d42133\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66ea85f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"66ea85f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Contact Me<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-17ec02b mb-0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"17ec02b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"TypographyPresentation TypographyPresentation--m RichText3-paragraph--withVSpacingNormal RichText3-paragraph\">Let us discuss your case.
