Criminal Complaint Lawyer in Prague
Filing a criminal complaint (trestní oznámení) in Czech Republic is your legal tool to trigger a police investigation against someone who has committed a crime against you. This might be fraud, theft, assault, a business partner who has embezzled funds, a landlord who has unlawfully entered your home, or any other criminal act.
A well-drafted criminal complaint is detailed, legally precise, and focuses on the elements of the specific criminal offense under Czech criminal law. A poorly drafted complaint is more likely to be dismissed or result in a superficial investigation. Many victims file complaints without legal assistance and find that the police close the matter quickly due to insufficient grounds in the complaint itself.

We identify the correct legal classification of the conduct, present the facts clearly in accordance with Czech procedural requirements, and follow the case to ensure it receives proper attention.
