Helena Veronique Stranger
Of Counsel

• I am a criminal defense attorney admitted to practice in both New York and Germany, bringing a rare transatlantic perspective to every case.
• Before entering private practice, I spent years on both sides of the criminal justice system in Germany. At the Munich DA’s Office, I gained firsthand insight into how the government builds and presents its cases. I later transitioned to private practice and specialized in white-collar criminal defense, handling complex fraud, financial crime, and corporate misconduct matters that demanded meticulous attention to detail.
• That same thoroughness defines how I work with every client. My cases are handled with genuine diligence, and clients can expect prompt, straightforward communication at every stage. No one should feel left in the dark about their own case.
• I represent clients across the full range of criminal matters in both the U.S. and German legal systems, from initial investigation through trial. Whether you are facing charges in New York or navigating a case that crosses the Atlantic, I am ready to help.
