Studer & Aepli - a renowned law firm based in Zurich (+41-41-710-15-77) - announces updates to its legal assistance services for clients in Zurich seeking to appeal decisions made by the Prosecution Office.

Zürich, Switzerland - November 6, 2024 —

Following its latest updates, the firm helps defendants challenge aspects of the evidence-gathering and inquiry phases of criminal cases. The prosecution procedure largely determines the eventual outcome of a case if it eventually reaches court. Studer & Aepli's team of experienced attorneys ensures that clients' rights are upheld during this crucial phase.

A key aspect of the firm's approach is to ensure that a client's right to participation is protected. In addition to claimants and victims, defendants are permitted to be present during interrogations and also have the right to ask their own questions during this phase. Studer & Aepli tracks the progress of cases from the police investigation stage to the prosecutor's procedure to ensure their client's participation.

In cases where the prosecutor's office has failed to respect a defendant's rights, the firm ensures that none of the evidence gathered can be used against them and that any such interrogations are repeated with all parties present.

Swiss court proceedings are relatively short, which makes it hard to impact the narrative established by the prosecutor's office if the defense team has not raised and pursued alternative theories during the preceding phase. Studer & Aepli ensures that additional evidence supporting their client's case is gathered and not solely incriminating information.

According to a discussion paper by the University of Zurich's law faculty, over 90% of crimes have been adjudicated by the Swiss legislator in the form of penal orders, with less than 10% of cases being handled by the courts. While this improves efficiency within the criminal justice system, Studer & Aepli is acutely aware of how the process can infringe on a client's right to be heard and compromise the defense's ability to build a strong alternative case.

Once a penalty order has been received, defendants have only 10 days to register objections. Studer & Aepli's attorneys work swiftly to lodge counterarguments and appeals with the penal court.

The firm's legal assistance services also cover letters rogatory and representation for clients facing criminal charges from international authorities.

A spokesperson says, “Studer & Aepli is your competent partner with a wide service portfolio of comprehensive legal advice for the founding of companies, legalization, litigation, and your defense in criminal proceedings.”
