Commercial criminal law deals with criminal cases in the business environment of companies and thus counteracts white-collar crime.
The assessment of commercial expert opinions, which are regularly used by criminal courts, is an important area of effective representation. Theoretically, the court must evaluate the expert’s report and check its accuracy. Unfortunately, however, experts are often commissioned in practice who present their expert opinions, which could hardly be contested during the investigation, as the only truth in the main proceedings. If you are caught up in the mills of white-collar criminal law, please contact me so that I can properly defend you before the public prosecutor’s experts.
Using stolen or open-source identity data, an instruction from an executive to transfer money to a specific account is faked. The perpetrators carry out extensive preparatory work to determine the impersonating identity, potential contact persons and organizational structures of the target company. If you are still accused of a criminal offense, we will fight with all the means at our disposal to have your investigation dropped or to have you acquitted in court. We are also happy to work with you to develop specific CEO fraud compliance.
Cases of fraud are often problematic even on a small scale, for example on eBay classifieds. Special difficulties can also arise if a possible act of fraud is committed against a majority of persons. But it also happens that the accused cannot explain a summons for goods fraud and does not seem to know the cause of the complaint. As a criminal defense lawyer with specific knowledge of white-collar criminal law, I will support you in all phases of the investigation proceedings and, if unavoidable, will also fight for your rights in court.
Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin are becoming increasingly popular. In these opaque transactions, dubious companies and private individuals present a high-yield investment without explaining the business model. Most of the time, financial services are sold to the ‘investors’ who trade these assets on the cryptocurrency market in order to pay out a certain percentage of the deposit to the investors every month. As a consumer, have you fallen victim to a provider who has lured you into an investment with deals on Bitcoins? Together we can minimize your financial loss.
Misuse of check and credit cards has been included as a criminal offense in the Criminal Code, which closes the gap in criminal liability between fraud pursuant to Art. § 263 StGB and embezzlement acc. § 266 StGB fills. In this case, the perpetrator misuses the credit card by making use of goods and services even though he cannot cover his account. In the same way, the perpetrator can hand over checks even though his account is not covered. If you are accused of abuse or a similar offense, I will be happy to advise and represent you in all areas of commercial criminal law.
The number of criminal proceedings involving allegations of breach of trust has risen sharply in recent years with the establishment of specialized departments for commercial criminal law. Although criminal offenses of embezzlement are not uncommon in the business world – where decisions about other people’s assets are the order of the day – proceedings for embezzlement are now often also directed against innocent citizens with a duty to look after assets. The reputation of the accused is negatively affected by the investigative measures. Do you need a specialist lawyer for embezzlement proceedings?
This means that, in addition to the legal task, the lawyer also has a human task, which can be achieved with a healthy balance of identification and distance to the client. On a personal level, we consider ourselves most successful in acting quickly and eloquently on your behalf, combined with a convincing and assertive demeanor.
In white-collar crime cases, your all-encompassing and reliable legal assistance is essential in the face of prosecution. The aim is to counter judicial opinion through critical questioning and structured investigative work and not to shy away from consistently and more closely examining aspects that have not yet been considered. The lawyer stands in defense of you, the client, and lays the foundations for all the evidence to be assessed and the search for a just decision to be pursued. This includes targeted control or intervention in the investigative work of the public prosecutor’s office and police authorities to protect and maintain the dignity and respect of the accused.
Are you facing charges for which you need quick and competent help, or do you need a competent defense lawyer for your embezzlement proceedings? Give us a call!
Excellent advice in a difficult liquidity situation.
Private tax office claim: installment payment agreed and resolved. Agreement also reached with the house bank.
No insolvency! no coercive measures! not even a negative entry with Schufa and credit agencies. I would like to thank Mr. Kaufmann for his very professional, successful and outstanding human help. I can only recommend it expressly and unreservedly.
I asked my tax law question and received a competent, comprehensible and very detailed answer on the same day, which answered my questions more than satisfactorily. I found the unobtrusive manner of communication particularly pleasant.
Thank you very much.
Representation and mediation with a bank:
Mr. Kaufmann helped me quickly and easily with a legal dispute with my bank. The problem was that the bank did not want to hand over the sale price to me after selling the land, but wanted to repay its own loans first, contrary to the agreement. Mr. Kaufmann was very proactive and reached an agreement with the bank very quickly. This would not have been possible without his support.
Finally found a lawyer like Mr. Kaufmann! Previously only had sleepyheads who only woke up when it came to their own bill. Mr. Kaufmanbn stands behind his clients 100%. He tries to get everything out of it that he can. He himself is only satisfied when his clients are satisfied too. He is a fighter. I know from my own experience that this is unfortunately no longer a matter of course for most lawyers these days. So thank you once again.
We came to Mr. Kaufmann with a very complex tax matter. At the beginning we didn’t have the feeling that we could solve the matter in a positive way. In the course of the proceedings, however, we increasingly got the feeling that we had chosen the right lawyer. Competent, helpful and always a solution on the table. Nice, competent advice and implementation. With his help, we brought it to a good end and a lot of stones fell from our hearts. All in all, the right step. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you once again for your help and advice.
First-class advice and support for people in medium-sized companies, among others. Mr. Kaufmann and his team are very friendly and competent and are personally committed to their clients. Highly recommended.
