Zeugenanwalt - Beiordnung erhalten

As a witness, you can use the services of a lawyer for the duration of the questioning. This also applies if you are not the victim of the crime.

Witness attorneys are lawyers who protect your rights for the duration of your interrogation. During questioning, they make sure, for example, that you do not give any information if you do not have to answer certain questions.

If you, as a witness, are not in a position to exercise the powers to which you are entitled yourself due to special circumstances and your interests cannot be taken into account in any other way, you must be assigned a lawyer to assist you if you do not yet have a lawyer.
