Areas of Practice
Working nationwide, Laura Farina Diederichs represents clients from the earliest stages of an investigation through to the main hearing. Her practice focuses on legally and factually complex cases that demand strategic thinking, precise analysis, and a deep understanding of evidentiary and procedural standards.
She defends individuals in serious criminal matters, including violent and sexual offenses, homicide, organized crime, cybercrime, narcotics cases, and financial or property-related allegations. She develops tailored defense strategies, examines the prosecution’s case with great care, and challenges evidence that cannot withstand critical scrutiny.
Her work includes detailed reviews of forensic reports and expert testimony, assessments of interrogation practices, and evaluations of investigative measures to identify inconsistencies, methodological flaws, or violations of procedural safeguards.
In addition, she handles criminal appeals before higher courts, focusing on procedural errors, evidentiary issues, and breaches of fair trial rights.
A further core area of her practice is constitutional and human rights litigation. She prepares constitutional complaints in cases involving infringements of fundamental rights or failures to safeguard due process.
As a retrial expert, she also examines potential wrongful convictions, conducts independent case assessments, and prepares applications for retrial where justified.

Her work brings together rigorous legal analysis and insights from psychology, criminology, and forensic science. Her approach is careful, methodical, and grounded in the belief that an effective defense must be both analytical and human. Clear communication, honest assessments, and a determined, integrity-driven defense are central to her practice.
