Friederike Nouri is one of the very few attorneys in Germany who holds specialist lawyer qualifications in both criminal law and traffic law simultaneously. This dual qualification is not a coincidence of career paths but the result of a deliberate specialisation strategy that gives her clients a measurable strategic advantage in complex proceedings.

In criminal law, she is highly specialised in traffic offences, drug-related offences and sexual offences: areas where procedural errors and strategic misjudgements in early investigation phases are often irreversible. Friederike Nouri therefore focuses on the earliest possible instruction and consistent influence on proceedings from the very first investigative step.

In traffic law, she has concentrated on two of the most demanding areas: autonomous driving, with all the unresolved liability questions raised by AI-controlled vehicle systems, and classic car law, a high-value niche that demands equal measures of legal precision and technical understanding. As a Certified Defence Lawyer for Traffic Criminal Law and Regulatory Offences (VdVKA e.V.) and as a lecturer at HWR Berlin, she combines academic depth with solid courtroom experience.
