The law firm WIJNKAMP STACHOWITZ focuses on specialisation. A core area of our work is in the fields of criminal
law and commercial criminal law.
Our highly qualified team of lawyers has extensive expertise in all areas of national and international criminal law as well as in criminal defence. In criminal law matters, it is often crucial to act quickly and take proactive action at an early stage of the proceedings. The optimal size of our law firm allows us to guarantee our clients (private individuals and companies) both personal contact with our lawyers at all times and to offer comprehensive advice as a team so that their individual needs can be met in the best possible way. In complex proceedings, we always work according to the dual control principle in order to pool our expertise and knowledge in the interests of our clients.
Thanks to our many years of knowledge of the Austrian criminal justice system and our in-depth knowledge of daily dealings with various investigating authorities, we guarantee competent and effective representation of our clients. The extensive language skills within our international team, which include German, Dutch and English, as well as our close cooperation with partners in other European countries, reflect our international orientation and enable us to advise and act across borders.
Our claim to always be at the cutting edge of both practical application and scientific debate is reflected in our pronounced specialisation.
The central focus of our work in the area of criminal law includes the active representation of our clients in preliminary proceedings, defence before courts in all parts of Austria, criminal procedural appeal proceedings, as well as the areas of white-collar criminal law, corporate criminal law, cybercrime and preventive advice (compliance). In addition, we are comprehensively active in the areas of financial criminal law, narcotics law, media criminal law, administrative criminal law, penitentiary law as well as constitutional law and human rights in order to offer our clients the best possible legal support.
The lawyers and defence attorneys Dr. Stephan Wijnkamp and MMag. Florian Stachowitz are active members of the ‘Association of Austrian Defence Lawyers’ (VÖStV) and are therefore well networked.
