Criminal Defense
Criminal defense involves the legal clash between the state with its extensive coercive powers and the individual defendant, whose liberty is at stake and who is generally disadvantaged by having less power and resources at his disposal.
We understand criminal defense as the fight for the rights and liberty of our clients. This struggle for the rights and freedom of defendants may initially involve seemingly insignificant matters. If you are subject to a preliminary investigation or have been accused of a crime, you understand how things can quickly escalate and get out of control.
We can provide you with competent advice and direction in navigating through the thicket of prosecutorial harassment.
Extradition Cross Border Jurisdiction
Law enforcement is no longer confined to national borders. Countries cooperate with each other and those accused of crimes are prosecuted across borders or extradited for trial.
Interpol provides data to police forces in 193 member states.
We help clients who are facing criminal charges outside of German through an experienced network of defense attorneys and represent clients facing extradition charges or represent them in front of the Commission to Control Interpol files against a red notice.
