LAWYER – A CALLING

Justice

/justice/ noun, feminine [the].
being just; principle of governmental or social conduct that grants everyone his or her right equally.

And I will fight for this by all legal means.
It is my firm conviction that in a state governed by the rule of law, defendants may only be convicted of a crime if it has been proven to them with probability bordering on certainty and in compliance with the Code of Criminal Procedure.
If you find yourself in an awkward situation and need legal assistance, I am at your disposal.

I see myself as a justice fanatic. At first glance, it may seem absurd to some that I have decided to become a lawyer and,
in particular, a criminal defense attorney.

About me

Early on in my legal education I  started to specialize in criminal law and criminal defense law.

While studying law at the University of Hamburg I completed the core subject of „Crime and crime control with an emphasis on juvenile law and youth criminology“.

 Afterwards I did my legal clerkship with the  Hanseatische Oberlandesgericht in Hamburg, where I spent time working at the public prosecution department, at a court that deals with the execution of sentences and with two criminal defense lawyers. I finished my legal clerkship by passing my second state examination.

 Since then I have been working as an independent lawyer.

 I am happy to represent you in matters related to alleged crimes, misdemeanors or infractions and other fields of law in Hamburg all over Germany.

 I am a member of the bar association of Hamburg, of the association of criminal defense lawyers in Hamburg and of the RAV, which is an association of lawyers for democracy and human rights.

 I speak English fluently.

Self-image / motivation / criminal defense

I see myself as someone who is obsessed with justice. So to some people it might seem strange that I decided to become a lawyer and especially a criminal defense lawyer. But as a matter of fact, defendants are often treated unjustly and most of the time their lawyer will be the only person who will protect them against that.

Criminal defense requires a lawyer to give everything he has. I am willing to exactly this for my clients. As a criminal defense lawyer I stand opposite to the law enforcement agencies with their far-reaching legal competencies. I will use every legal possibility to challenge the prosecutor‘s case and uphold my client‘s rights.

But I see my task as a lawyer not only in protecting my clients against law enforcement agencies whose investigations will often be tainted by prejudices or complacency. I also defend the client against prejudgements in (traditional or „social“) media as well as the personal environment.  In my opinion it is not enough, to just be a „conviction escort“. If necessary I am ready and able to take on the police, prosecutors and the court even if it is a tedious task.

 It is my firm conviction that in a state of law defendants can only be convicted for a crime if they have been proven guilty with a probability bordering on certainty and in compliance with the code of criminal procedure. And when a conviction is justified, then the punishment should still fit the crime and not be unreasonably harsh. Convictions that don‘t meet all of these requirements are not only unjust, they are against the law and it is my duty to prevent them from happening.

 I know from my experience that criminal proceedings regularly cause great anxieties and uncertainty for the accused. That is why if you choose me as your lawyer, I will guide you through the proceedings and everything connected to it with great care and honesty.
