A series practically about the criminal case, from the first summons to the final decision and its effects. Each episode starts from a concrete situation and explains what is worth checking, what rights you have and when the intervention of a lawyer can be useful.

A police call, a search or an accusation raises urgent questions. The answers depend on the procedural status and the documents of the case file. This guide helps you understand the stages and prepare an informed discussion with your lawyer.

It starts here: the first contact with the investigation

  1. The summons to the police or prosecutor's office: what you check before the hearing — episode 1, about the quality of being called, preparation and not showing up.
  2. The police have called: what to do before attending — episode 2, about the verification of the call, the telephone citation and the preparation of the presentation.

How to use the guide

You can read the episodes in order or you can start with the problem you are facing. Always check the date of the update and the documents received: a deadline or a measure is not judged solely by the title of the article. The examples are hypothetical, and general explanations do not replace an analysis of the concrete situation.
