CRIMINAL LAW

Comprehensive legal services in misdemeanor, criminal, and fiscal penal cases. From arraignment through to enforcement proceedings. Defense services as well as representation as a counsel.

Experience

For over a decade, I have handled criminal cases, including those involving a high degree of factual and legal complexity. A particular focus of my practice is on cases involving professional soldiers and other uniformed service officers — including both criminal and disciplinary liability matters.

How to Get Started

In criminal proceedings, particularly those concerning more serious offences, the assistance of defense counsel or a legal representative at the early stages is crucial. Professional support from the outset of proceedings—such as at the stage of reporting an offence or the presentation of charges—may have a positive impact on the entire course of the case. For this reason, it is advisable to seek legal assistance without delay.

You are encouraged to make contact by phone or email to arrange an initial consultation, as well as in situations requiring urgent intervention (e.g. in the event of detention or a search).

Each case requires an individual assessment of the factual circumstances and the current procedural stage.

Frequently asked questions

What compensation can I claim in the event of unlawful termination of an employment contract?

One may claim compensation of up to three months’ salary, but not more than the salary for the notice period.

Is it discrimination that I receive a lower salary than a colleague?

This question cannot be answered unequivocally. Unequal treatment may constitute discrimination if it is based on non-meritorious criteria; however, if different remuneration results from differences in competencies, experience, or other significant employee characteristics, it is permissible.

Can I be dismissed while I am pregnant?

Women on sick leave related to pregnancy are protected against termination with notice. Additionally, if the employer violates this prohibition, they are granted additional protection and rights. Importantly, pregnancy may constitute grounds for revoking the effects of an agreement terminating employment by mutual consent if the employee learned about her condition only after signing it (and was already pregnant at the time of concluding the agreement).

Is the employer required to introduce work regulations and remuneration regulations?

In the case of smaller workplaces, this is not necessary (although it may be advisable to standardize rules applicable to all employees and increase transparency). If the employer employs at least 50 employees, they are required to introduce work and remuneration regulations.
