Free Initial Consultation
Traffic Law Attorney in Germany
Traffic law issues can affect your finances, your mobility, and sometimes your driving licence. Early legal advice often makes the difference between a manageable case and unnecessary damage.
I regularly assist with:
- ›Traffic accident claims and enforcement of compensation
- ›Defence in traffic-related criminal matters, including hit-and-run allegations
- ›Action against driving bans and threatened licence revocation
- ›Review of fine proceedings, criminal cases, and licence authority measures
- ›Direct lawyer support instead of a call-centre style process
Whether the matter concerns accident settlement, criminal defence, or action against licence-related measures, you receive a clear legal assessment and direct lawyer support throughout the case.

Fast case processing, very friendly contact, would gladly use their services again (not the accident itself, but the handling of the case by Dr. Lerch...)

Complete satisfaction! I needed an expert opinion for the recognition of professional experience towards my studies and received very professional support and advice from Mr. Lerch throughout the entire process. The fact that the application for recognition was accepted was simply the icing on the cake!

Frequently asked questions
When should I speak to a traffic law attorney?
As early as possible. In criminal matters, driving bans, and licence-related proceedings, early strategic decisions often matter.
Do you also assist in alleged hit-and-run cases?
Yes. In alleged hit-and-run matters, quick legal assessment is often especially important.
Can action be taken against a driving ban or licence revocation?
That depends on the facts. I review whether it makes sense to challenge a fine decision, criminal judgment, or authority measure.
Do you also assist after a traffic accident?
Yes. There is a dedicated traffic accident landing page with further details here.
