Tax criminal law in Wismar: frequently asked questions
Which fiscal court is competent for Wismar?

Who investigates criminal tax matters?
Usually the tax investigation unit and the administrative fine and criminal tax unit of the tax office; in larger matters, the public prosecutor may also be involved. Findings can be used in both tracks, so statements should be made only through defense counsel.
What should I do first after a summons or search?
Do not comment on the facts without defense counsel, read the warrant carefully and request the protocol and seizure list. Call us immediately so the crucial first hours are handled in a structured way.
