Competencies
Plan A – Criminal law firm
Whether business or sports criminal law: we are optimally prepared for you.
The expertise of the law firm Plan A covers particular the following areas of criminal and sanctions law:
We are criminal defense attorneys. Plan A represents and defends you in criminal proceedings against the public prosecutor’s office, the police, customs and tax investigation. We defend in the preliminary proceedings as well as in the main trial. We fight for you. Always.
DetailsCompanies are in the crosshairs. A fine can run into the millions. Plan A represents and defends companies in these fine proceedings. In order to prevent things from getting that far in the first place, we work with you in advance on reasonable and accurate compliance concepts. We will have your back.
DetailsPrevention is better than aftercare. Plan A establishes and implements effective compliance concepts to prevent risks from arising in the first place. This includes training, practical training, manuscripts and train-the-trainer. With internal investigations, we also clarify if there are weaknesses in your company. We are happy to worry about your concerns – in order to then solve them.
DetailsCriminal proceedings are often extensive and complex. Investigation files can quickly consist of (many) thousand pages. Plan A knows how to deal with them. Mountains of files do not frighten us. On the contrary: we are motivated.
DetailsA large number of state and association law sanctions are imminent in sport. Plan A advises and defends athletes, clubs and associations. Defense and compliance in sports is one of our passions. We make sure that you can concentrate on your top performances.
DetailsViolations of competition or trade secrets may be punishable by law. The public prosecutor’s office also prosecutes product piracy and copyright violations. Plan A has defended and advised in this area for many years. We will not leave you alone.
DetailsDoctors, clinics, hospitals and health insurance companies are now quickly in the crosshairs of investigators. Through compliance, Plan A prevents dangers from arising. If investigations are already pending, we defend you effectively and with a view beyond the horizon.
DetailsIn times of global warming and environmental catastrophes, environmental protection is also on the public prosecutor’s desk. Plan A advises on the subject of compliance and defends in proceedings involving environmental criminal law.
DetailsEmployers and employees can be just as liable to prosecution as works councils, management boards and supervisory boards. Plan A defends you against the special challenges of labour criminal law. Through compliance we ensure that risks do not arise in the first place.
DetailsCriminal cases are often international. Europe consists of many national legal systems. There are also EU influences. Plan A keeps the overview for you. Dr. Bott has been an expert of the Council of Europe on economic criminal law issues since 2015. We can also advise you on international matters; our five foreign languages help us to do so.
DetailsAs a witness you need special protection in criminal proceedings. Plan A accompanies and supports you. We protect your rights and stand by you.
DetailsA search by public prosecutor’s office, police, LKA or customs is often at the beginning of criminal proceedings. Mistakes that are made here shape the proceedings until the end. Plan A develops compliance concepts and rules of conduct with you. The practical test is a Mock Dawn Raid. If a search does occur, we will accompany it on site. If you are in distress, we will be there.
DetailsNobody likes paying taxes. Unfortunately, no one asks if you like it or not, especially not the state. If you discover that irregularities have occurred, we will accompany you to a self-denunciation with immunity from prosecution. If there are proceedings, we will defend you against the state.
DetailsPlan A defends not only in the classic commercial criminal law. We will not let you down in other criminal proceedings either. We mainly defend in proceedings concerning traffic criminal law, asset crimes, resistance against state authority and juvenile criminal law. The general criminal law is often a bit more pithy, but for you we are also.
