Areas of law

German criminal law and the law governing administrative offenses are very diverse and confusing.
In addition to the "core criminal law" set out in the German Criminal Code, criminal and administrative offences can be found in countless other provisions.

Violations of corporate obligations are subject to a wide range of criminal and administrative fines. This is especially true for highly regulated industries. Irrespective of the industry, in the event of damage or loss, accusations of negligent homicide / bodily injury or an environmental offense can very quickly be made against members of the company's management. Private individuals and employees of a company or a government agency may be affected by allegations of embezzlement or corruption alike.
