ROXIN Rechtsanwälte Part mbB

What ROXIN Rechtsanwälte Part mbB does

ROXIN Rechtsanwälte Part mbB is a specialized German boutique law firm founded in 2004 by Dr. Imme Roxin and headquartered in Hamburg, with a second office in Munich. The firm focuses exclusively on economic criminal law (Wirtschaftsstrafrecht), tax criminal law (Steuerstrafrecht), and compliance investigations, serving two primary client segments: companies facing criminal or administrative proceedings (including internal investigations under §§ 30, 130 OWiG) and individual executives, board members, and managing directors facing criminal allegations such as fraud, embezzlement, bribery, and tax crimes.

The firm operates as a private partnership (Partnerschaftsgesellschaft mit beschränkter Berufshaftung) under German law, with three partners — Managing Partner Dr. Oliver Sahan, Dr. Johannes Altenburg, and Dr. Ramona Höft — plus Counsel, Of Counsel, and associate attorneys. The team is characterized by doctorates from leading German universities and specialist certifications such as Fachanwalt für Strafrecht and Zertifizierter Verteidiger im Steuerstrafrecht, and maintains active academic teaching roles. Its product surface spans individual defense representation, corporate defense and dawn-raid support, internal compliance investigations, preventive advisory, and voluntary disclosures (Selbstanzeigen).

Revenue is generated through professional legal fees billed under the German Legal Fee Act (Rechtsanwaltsvergütungsgesetz – RVG) for court matters and hourly/project rates for advisory mandates. The firm relies on a sales-led, partner-driven go-to-market approach supported by thought-leadership marketing (webinars, training courses, academic publishing, legal rankings), and routes cross-border matters through the ROXIN International Alliance network covering 36 countries and 54 cities. Revenue figures are not publicly disclosed. The firm has been consistently ranked by WirtschaftsWoche, Handelsblatt, Chambers, Legal 500, Brand Eins, and the F.A.Z. Institut.
