Anyone looking for a criminal law lawyer in Darmstadt usually finds themselves in a stressful exceptional situation. A criminal accusation brings with it uncertainty, loss of control and often considerable personal and professional risks. This is precisely why it is crucial to involve a criminal defense lawyer at an early stage who does not escalate, but acts strategically and with foresight.
I am a lawyer specializing in criminal law and criminal defence. The aim of my work is to bring criminal proceedings to an early end with a dismissal and to protect clients from the risks of an uncertain verdict.

My defense strategy: Hiring instead of an uncertain verdict

As a criminal law lawyer in Darmstadt, it is my clear goal to end your investigation or criminal proceedings with a dismissal.
The reason for this is sober and statistically proven:
Only around 2-3 % of all criminal proceedings in Germany end in an acquittal. In contrast, an estimated 50-60 % of proceedings are discontinued.
For clients, the result is almost the same:
No entry in the Federal Central Criminal Register, no entry in the certificate of good conduct and, as a rule, final termination of the proceedings without the possibility of renewed prosecution. The state treasury bears the costs of the proceedings, with the exception of your own lawyer's fee.
On the other hand, there is a statistical risk of over 95 % of risking a conviction at a trial. Against this background, I see it as my duty to protect you from the risk of an uncertain verdict.

Focus on criminal law and criminal defense

As a lawyer specializing in criminal law, I assist clients in all phases of criminal proceedings - from early investigation proceedings to court proceedings, if these can no longer be avoided.
As a criminal law attorney in Darmstadt, I do not work schematically, but develop an individual, fact-based defense strategy for each case.

Early defense in preliminary proceedings

After accepting the mandate, I immediately begin with the defense. The aim is to carefully work through the facts of the case and classify them legally.

If the proceedings are still under investigation, my aim is to Prevent the filing of charges. Exculpatory circumstances and legal arguments should be presented as early as possible, as the chances of success regularly decrease as the proceedings progress.

Especially in the context of the Criminal defense in Mainz shows how decisive an early and structured approach can be.

Costs of criminal defense

Depending on the scope and importance of the matter, the remuneration of my legal services is based either on the German Lawyers' Fees Act (RVG) or on an individual fee agreement. The fee will be discussed transparently before I start working for you.

The role of the defense lawyer

For the defense lawyer, the question is not whether a client is guilty or innocent. This decision is the sole responsibility of the court.

My task is to consistently protect and enforce the rights of every client in criminal proceedings. In doing so, I am open to conflict if necessary, but also rely on objective and compromise-oriented solutions if these serve the goal of a dismissal. This approach applies not only to proceedings in the Darmstadt area, but also to clients in other parts of the Rhine-Main region - for example, when clients require legal representation as a Lawyer in Wiesbaden or a Criminal defense in Wiesbaden need.

FAQ

Criminal law lawyer Darmstadt

One Criminal law lawyer in Darmstadt as early as possible - ideally as early as the preliminary proceedings. Legal advice is crucial, especially before you make a statement to the police or public prosecutor's office, as careless statements can hardly be corrected later. Early criminal defense increases the chances of ending the proceedings without an indictment or trial.

The cost of a Criminal law lawyer in Darmstadt depend on the scope and importance of the proceedings. The remuneration is based either on the German Lawyers' Fees Act (RVG) or - particularly in more complex criminal proceedings - on an individual fee agreement. A transparent explanation of costs is usually provided at the beginning of the attorney's work.

A criminal defense lawyer applies for access to the files, examines the accusation from a legal perspective and develops a defense strategy. The aim is often to present exonerating circumstances during the preliminary proceedings and thus achieve a dismissal. An experienced Criminal law lawyer Darmstadt tries in particular to prevent charges from being brought and to protect his clients from the risks of an uncertain verdict.

Statistically, only around 2-3 % of all criminal proceedings end in an acquittal, while around 50-60 % are discontinued. A discontinuation usually does not lead to an entry in the Federal Central Criminal Register or criminal record and ends the proceedings for good. I therefore deliberately pursue the goal of an early discontinuation instead of a risky acquittal.
