The public safety measures typically carried out by the police encompass a wide range of everyday situations in which you may encounter law enforcement. Once you have been classified as a so-called "disturber of the peace," the authorities have various legal instruments at their disposal to restrict your rights. This can include orders to leave the premises, detention, or so-called identification procedures. The subsequent consequences of these measures can also be significant. Based on general criteria such as the principle of proportionality and the correct selection of the "disturber," such measures by law enforcement should be questioned, reviewed by the administrative courts, and subsequently have their effects (e.g., data storage) rectified.
Particularly in connection with public assemblies, orders to leave the premises, detention, and identification procedures have become commonplace. Combined with the frequently unlawful assembly-related restrictions imposed by the assembly authorities, this has led to a considerable need for legal representation and advice in recent times. However, we have been successfully advising and representing affected parties in court for years.
