KINDL.trusted Legal Defense

Legal defense in economic and financial criminal proceedings

It happens quickly, damn quickly, and above all it is unexpected: suddenly, at seven in the morning, representatives of the authorities arrive to search your home, documents are seized and criminal proceedings are initiated against you.

This is an enormous personal and financial burden and causes a great deal of uncertainty. In such cases, KINDL Legal Defense is at your side. We are not only experts in criminal law, but thanks to our multiple authorisations and cooperation with KINDL.Advisory, we also have in-depth knowledge of accounting, business administration and tax law. Thanks to our many years of experience as defence lawyers and former public prosecutors, we can provide you with strategic advice and highly specialised support during proceedings and in court.
