Criminal law relating to sexual offenses
Sexual Criminal Law – Your Rights Deserve a Strong Defense
Sexual criminal law is one of the most sensitive and consequential areas of criminal law. Even an allegation of a sexual offense – whether justified or not – can have serious personal, professional, and social consequences for those affected. This makes competent, discreet, and dedicated legal representation all the more important.
I represent clients at all stages of criminal proceedings – from the initial police interrogation to the main hearing and beyond. My goal is to protect your rights, to influence the course of proceedings at an early stage, and to shield you from potential harm.
My areas of practice in sexual criminal law include, among others:
Allegations of sexual coercion or rape (§ 177 German Criminal Code – StGB)
Sexual abuse of children or persons in a position of dependency (§§ 176 ff. StGB)
Possession, acquisition, or distribution of child pornography (§ 184b StGB)
Exhibitionist acts (§ 183 StGB)
Sexual harassment (§ 184i StGB)
False accusations and unfounded allegations
As a criminal defense lawyer based in Aachen, I provide you with in-depth legal expertise and practical experience in sexual offense cases – nationwide and at all levels of jurisdiction. I thoroughly analyze the investigation files, develop a tailored defense strategy, and represent your interests with determination, discretion, and legal sensitivity.
Especially in cases involving so-called lesser sexual offenses, my primary objective is to achieve a dismissal of the case without a court hearing – provided that the individual circumstances allow for such a resolution.
Court-Appointed Defense Available
In suitable cases, I also accept mandates as a court-appointed defense counsel. If a criminal investigation has been initiated against you or charges have already been filed, I will gladly assess whether the conditions for mandatory defense are met and how representation as appointed counsel can be arranged. Even if you have already been assigned a public defender, a change of counsel may be possible under certain conditions.
Early Legal Advice Is Crucial
Do not wait until charges are filed or the media report on your case. Contact me as early as possible. Important decisions that may shape the course of the case can already be made during the preliminary investigation. Do not make any statements to the police or investigative authorities without prior legal consultation – your future is at stake.
