The GLADICA catalog of fines
In hardly any other area of law can one rely on competent legal help so quickly and unpredictably - be it as a victim of a traffic accident or accused of a traffic offense or administrative offense - because a road user is anyone who moves on public roads. The goals of defense and representation are just as varied as the clients' problems.
Particularly in traffic criminal law, a lawyer is required who does not view the criminal proceedings in isolation, but can also provide the accused with comprehensive advice and representation on possible subsequent problems, e.g. with the driving license authority or insurers. For example, a deal with the public prosecutor that initially appears favorable and ends the criminal proceedings may later cost the accused their driver's license or jeopardize their insurance coverage.
Even as a victim of a traffic accident - be it a driver, cyclist or pedestrian - you should not place lower demands on your legal advisor, but can demand that they take all the implications of a course of action into account.
