What I will do for you

Criminal prosecution is a serious matter that can fundamentally affect the rest of your life. You are entitled to a defense lawyer from the moment you become a suspect. Silence is golden, but a proper defense is more valuable.

  • Defense during police questioning
  • Defense in pre-trial proceedings (custody, charges)
  • Defense at the main hearing in court
  • Appeals and extraordinary appeals
  • Plea bargains (guilty plea agreements)
  • Custody matters: applications for release

How criminal defense works in practice

Criminal proceedings have strictly formal stages: preliminary investigation, investigation, indictment, main hearing, and appellate proceedings. The defense lawyer has different priorities at each stage. At the start, it is about minimizing evidence gathered against the client; at the indictment stage, about challenging the evidence and offering an alternative version of events; and in court, about procedural defense and sound argumentation. Staying silent as a suspect is always sensible until we have discussed the case: anything you say can be used as evidence.
