An extradition request usually represents a great emotional burden and a legal challenge for those affected, which should not be faced under any circumstances without experienced legal support.

We not only advise and represent clients who are to be extradited from or to Germany but also use all our expertise and many years of experience to obtain the removal of Interpol Red Notices – depending on the country from which they were initiated.

Extraditions between Canada and Germany are carried out following the provisions of the 1977 German-Canadian Extradition Treaty and its 2002 additional Protocol.
Extradition statistics from the Federal Office of Justice, which cover the years 2003 to 2020, show that one extradition from Canada to Germany was granted in 2020. The last approved extradition from Germany to Canada was recorded in 2015.
