Contact us early if you are accused of rape
Rape
Rape is a serious sexual offense that can result in a prison sentence of several years. In particularly serious cases with a risk of reoffending, a judge may even impose lifelong preventive detention. This offense is contained in Section 177 of the German Criminal Code, which summarizes the offenses of sexual assault, sexual coercion, and rape.
If you are facing an accusation of rape, you should immediately contact our law firm, which has specialized attorneys. In many cases, this is a false accusation. Only attorneys with experience in this area can refute the accusation.
It’s often one person’s word against another’s. It takes expertise and experience to get the accused out of this predicament.
It’s best to contact us as early as possible. If the public prosecutor accuses you of rape, you will face an intensive police investigation. This includes, among other things, a police summons, a house search, and pre-trial detention. As lawyers, we provide comprehensive advice in this stressful situation and protect you, for example, from rash statements that could later prove detrimental to you.
Of course, we will also defend you if the accusation of rape is true. That is our job as lawyers. In this case, we try to minimize the punishment.
We are also available to victims and are happy to support them in filing a joint lawsuit.
