Criminal Law
My help for all parts of clients as criminal defence attorney:
The living together of citizens is very complicated – especially in a highly developed industrial state like the Federal Republic of Germany – and is rich in conflicts. The criminal law with the system of criminal sanctions serves the purpose to exercise social control. This is necessary in order to allow a regular living together of the citizens. From this control results, everybody who takes part in the social living together can become the subject of criminal reproaches and inquiry measures. This is not only valid in cases in which a citizen acted really punishable. Often he is uninvolved and has none or only low guilt for the event.
Furthermore, during the conflicts which are settled not really in the criminal law, many people raise unobjective criminal reproaches towards the opponent. Thus it is tried to instrument the criminal law as an „additional weapon“ for holding of disputes. If, for whatever reason, criminal charges are brought against you or if a preliminary investigation has been initiated, you should react properly and first have access to the investigation file through a lawyer. Only then you know the circumstances and can react properly and appropriate to the topic.
Therefore, the following notes on your behavior in criminal investigations
(five points that matter):
- First step:
Important: No hesitation or ignoring the matter.
- Second step:
Equally important: Do not make any hasty statements. Please do not make a statement to the police!
- Third step:
Commissioning a competent defense attorney.
- Fourth step:
Representation display and inspection of the investigation file by the defense attorney.
- Fifth step:
Advice by the defense attorney concerning the tactical approach and the admission to the case with the aim of acquittal, cessation of proceedings or low sentence.
Please always note:
- For you there is no obligation to statements to the police. Such statements are unnecessary, risky and you can easily lead to irreversible deterioration of your defense lawyer.
- In the criminal investigation procedure, you should first contact us directly. A hesitation, but also ill-considered objections can negatively affect your situation.
- I am available to you as a defence attorney to safeguard your interests in all preliminary proceedings, administrative offenses and criminal proceedings, within the Federal Republic of Germany.
- This applies regardless of which police authority, which prosecutor or which criminal court operates in Germany.
