Concerns are also appropriate due to the threat of a conviction. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nevertheless, it is important to react correctly in such a situation and not let your emotions lead you astray. You should <\/span><b>never<\/b> <b>make serious decisions in criminal proceedings, which often involve your future and personal freedom, without legal support<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span> <\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some general instructions on how you should behave when accused of a BtMG offense: <\/span><\/p><h3><strong> <\/strong><\/h3><h3><strong>Do not make a statement<\/strong><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you believe you are innocent, you may have the desire to justify yourself and make a statement to the police. It is understandable that you would like to clear up the allegation by presenting your side of the story.  Nevertheless, we strongly advise against attending a police summons and making a statement. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Defendants are often legal laypeople. They do not have a comprehensive overview of the overall situation. For example, you lack access to the <\/span><b>case files<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which can only be viewed by a <\/span><b>lawyer<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><a title=\"Criminal Defence Lawyer\" href=\"\/\"><b>criminal defense attorney<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Therefore, contact a lawyer specialized in <\/span><a title=\"Narcotics criminal law\" href=\"https:\/\/stirnweiss-brenner.de\/en\/narcotics-criminal-law\/\"><b>narcotics law<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and have them <\/span><b>cancel<\/b> <b>the summons appointment<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By undergoing an interrogation, you will very likely<\/span><b> incriminate yourself<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or make statements that you can no longer undo. In the worst case, you thus contribute to your own <\/span><b>conviction<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Remember that, unlike you, police officers are legally trained to conduct a criminal interrogation and obtain information from you. You should therefore\u2014if at all\u2014only appear for a summons with a lawyer.<\/span><\/p><h3><strong> <\/strong><\/h3><h3><strong>Take the accusation seriously<\/strong><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While many people tend to want to explain themselves to the investigating authorities, there are also those who trust that the criminal charge will resolve itself. This path is also not advisable. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An <\/span><b>investigation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can always take an uncertain outcome. Under certain circumstances, you can also be <\/span><b>innocently<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <\/span><b>convicted<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of a crime. Contact an experienced criminal defense lawyer as soon as you first learn of an accusation against you. Only then can they intervene <\/span><b>early<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in the proceedings in your favor and potentially achieve a dismissal, a reduction in sentence, or an acquittal. <\/span> <\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <\/span><\/p><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Stay calm during searches<\/strong> <\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even if you do not like it, you must tolerate a <\/span><b>search<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of your home. In any case, ask to see the <\/span><b>search warrant<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and demand <\/span><b>proper documentation <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">of the seized items and documents. <\/span> <\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Behave cooperatively, but do not actively assist in the search.
