Full-scope criminal defense, 24-hour emergency assistance, private prosecution, economic crimes, and oral trial representation in federal and provincial courts.
A criminal charge — even a preliminary or unjust one — profoundly disrupts the life of a person and their family. Every day without adequate defense multiplies the risks: pretrial detention, asset freezes, restrictions, public exposure, and professional damage. In criminal law, response time is decisive: the first hours often determine the entire course of a case.
Tchestnykh & Asociados provides full-scope criminal defense in Buenos Aires City, the Province of Buenos Aires, and throughout Argentina, with 24-hour emergency assistance, immediate presence at police stations, prosecutor's offices, and courts, and experience across all jurisdictions — federal, ordinary, and economic criminal. We also handle private prosecutions: professional representation of victims is often the decisive factor in making the criminal system work.
