Our legal areas

Criminal law

The members of our legal team are specialised in all areas of criminal law. Our expertise covers everything from drug-related cases, assault, manslaughter and murder cases to financial crime (of various degrees of severity) and any other type of criminal case. We have proven experience in defending clients involved in tax, property and investment fraud, as well as those suspected of implication in, and/or managing, criminal organisations. Since we specialise in all areas of criminal law, you can also contact us about cases pending before the Police Court (Politierechter), as well as before a 3-judge criminal court (Meervoudige Strafkamer) or the Juvenile Court (Kinderrechter). In some cases, we may also file an appeal on your behalf with the Court of Appeal or an appeal in cassation before the Supreme Court. We are also experienced in specialised procedures such as extradition, surrender and detention under a hospital order (TBS). Our criminal barristers are fluent in Dutch, English and French (in the case of G.I. Roos).
