Frequently asked questions

What should I do if I am arrested?
Use your right to remain silent and immediately request a lawyer. Do not make any statements without legal advice. Call us at any time — we are available 24/7 and will come to the police station immediately.
Will I get a criminal record?
Not every conviction leads to a criminal record. Fines under €100 or a dismissal do not result in a criminal record. We always aim to avoid a criminal record, which can affect your work, travel, and certificate of conduct.
Should I accept a penalty order?
Not necessarily. A penalty order is a sentence imposed by the prosecution without a judge. You can lodge an objection within 14 days. We assess free of charge whether objection is viable.
