Oscar Pluimer

Attorney-at-law, Partner

Oscar Pluimer specialises in the area of corporate and white collar crime. He assists companies and individuals in criminal fraud cases, environmental cases and working conditions matters. He also represents their interests in administrative enforcement investigations and reputational matters in public disclosure proceedings under the Open Government Act (Woo).

Oscar is a multidisciplinary attorney with extensive knowledge in the field of financial and economic offences such as money laundering, bribery, fraud, forgery and other (economic) criminal offences, including environmental offences. He provides legal assistance in complex, large-scale criminal investigations and proceedings. In these cases, he represents suspects, witnesses and victims. He also handles cassation proceedings before the Dutch Supreme Court as well as extradition and surrender cases. In addition, he assists companies and individuals in administrative law and disciplinary matters, as the ‘sanctioning government’ frequently takes enforcement action through these channels. For example, in the case of (an intended) imposition of an administrative fine or disciplinary measure.

Oscar frequently writes publications in the field of criminal law and criminal procedural law. For example, he wrote the chapter “Money Laundering” in the handbook Bijzonder Strafrecht and is currently one of the authors of the “Money Laundering” section of the Tijdschrift voor Sanctierecht & Onderneming. He is also a member of the disciplinary justice committee of the Dutch Bar Association (NOvA). In addition, he regularly lectures, particularly on money laundering and anti-money laundering regulations (Wwft).

Oscar studied criminal law (cum laude) in Utrecht and successfully completed the multidisciplinary master's honours program (the Excellent mastertracé). He then spent almost two years as a lecturer and researcher at the Willem Pompe Institute for Criminal Law and Criminology. He later successfully completed the postgraduate course “Specialisation in Criminal Law” at Utrecht University.
