FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions About the First Contact

What does the initial consultation cost??

The cost of an initial consultation is shown to you transparently in advance when you schedule an appointment through our digital booking system. This means that before booking, you already know what fee to expect.

Do I have to come to the office in person?

No. In many cases, an initial consultation can be arranged on short notice by phone or video conference. In-person appointments at our offices in Munich or Milan are also available by arrangement.

Can I contact you from abroad?

Yes. We also assist clients abroad and in cross-border criminal matters. You can contact us in English, German or Italian.

What should I do if I have already received a summons, if a search has taken place, or if an arrest warrant has been issued?

In these situations, the facts should be assessed by a lawyer as early as possible. Please send us your inquiry with the most important information and, where possible, upload any available documents directly through the form. If the matter is particularly urgent, you can indicate this accordingly in the form.

Can I send documents directly through the form?

Yes. Through the form, you can already upload documents such as summonses, penalty orders, indictments, arrest warrants, or other official correspondence. This makes an initial assessment of your matter easier.

Do you only take on privately retained defense matters, or do you also review court-appointed defense?

As a rule, we handle privately retained criminal defense matters. In suitable cases, we also review whether court-appointed defense may be an option, particularly if the legal requirements are met. In individual court-appointed defense cases, an additional payment by the client may also be required.
