Rosenheim is a regional legal and economic hub in Upper Bavaria. Located on the River Inn, the city also serves as a major transportation junction and is home to numerous small and medium-sized enterprises as well as internationally active companies.

We guide you through every phase of criminal proceedings, often resolving cases without public trials. Our communications—whether in person, by phone, or via video call—are protected by lawyer-client privilege and are inadmissible in court.
We also assist clients in recovering assets seized or confiscated. Should the case proceed to trial, it can often be concluded after just one day of hearings. Multiple court sessions are typically required only in particularly complex matters.
Whether it’s an initial suspicion, a search warrant, formal charges, a penalty order, or an appeal—our criminal defense firm takes swift and decisive action to protect your rights from the very start:
Depending on the concrete case, prompt legal counsel can be decisive. Early involvement by an experienced defense lawyer clearly enhances the likelihood of objections, case dismissals, or lenient penalties.
International criminal proceedings are becoming increasingly relevant in Rosenheim and throughout the Southeastern Bavaria region—driven in no small part by its proximity to national borders and strong economic ties with other European countries. We provide defense in cases involving:
For example: A business owner from Rosenheim is arrested on the basis of a European Arrest Warrant under suspicion of cross-border subsidy fraud involving an infrastructure project. We coordinate the defense strategy in close cooperation with legal counsel abroad and successfully prevent the extradition.

Tax-related criminal proceedings can have serious consequences for both business owners and high-net-worth individuals. We provide well-founded defense in complex tax crime cases—proactively, during the investigative phase, and at trial. We provide advice and defense in cases involving:
Example: An internationally active company based in Traunstein comes under scrutiny by tax investigators due to undeclared foreign income and undisclosed permanent establishments abroad. We coordinate the voluntary disclosure and negotiations with the authorities to achieve a penalty-free resolution.
Our goal is often a penalty-free resolution without public proceedings, achieved through full disclosure and meticulous legal guidance.
