Traffic Law - Your lawyer for all matters relating to road traffic

Traffic law (Verkehrsrecht) permeates nearly every area of our daily lives. Whether on the way to work, at business appointments or during leisure time - participating in road traffic carries diverse legal risks and challenges. From simple traffic violations to serious traffic accidents involving personal injury or property damage, the consequences can be far-reaching: fines, driving bans, revocation of your driving licence or even criminal prosecution. Competent legal advice and representation are therefore essential to safeguard your rights and achieve the best possible outcome.

Our approach to traffic law advice is comprehensive and goal-oriented: we analyse every case individually, examine all available legal options and develop a tailor-made defence strategy. In doing so, we take into account not only the immediate legal aspects but also the practical implications for your professional and private life. Our objective is to prevent or at least minimise driving bans and licence revocations, to reduce fines and, in the event of an accident, to achieve a fair settlement of the damages.

In fine proceedings, we systematically examine all procedural errors and substantive objections. Measurement inaccuracies can often be demonstrated, procedural errors uncovered or the proportionality of the sanction successfully challenged. Particularly where a driving ban is threatened, we employ every legal means to prevent or shorten it.

Driving-licence law is particularly complex and far-reaching in its consequences. Where the withdrawal of a driving licence, an MPU order (medical-psychological assessment) or fitness-to-drive issues are threatened, we develop individual strategies to save the driving licence. We accompany you throughout the entire process and prepare you optimally for any expert assessments.

In traffic accidents, we represent both injured parties and those who caused the accident. We clarify the apportionment of liability, enforce damages claims or defend against excessive demands. In doing so, we work closely with experts, assessors and insurers in order to achieve a quick and fair settlement of damages.

Our lawyer Kumru Dursun has many years of experience in traffic law and is familiar with the latest developments in case law and legislation. She stands by her clients with advice and action and fights with commitment for their rights - whether in court or out of court.
