More about the book

Mr. Abraham Moszkowicz (37) is a prominent figure in a new generation of Dutch criminal defense lawyers, known for his sharp defense tactics, legal ingenuity, and a candid yet stylish approach to advocacy. His almost surgical defense style achieves undeniable success but also faces resistance. His unorthodox methods attract scrutiny from the Public Prosecution Service, with many prosecutors both fearing and admiring his performance. The underworld also recognizes him as a top criminal defense attorney, known for going to great lengths for his clients. Moszkowicz is involved in numerous high-profile cases, including defending Johan V., alias De Hakkelaar, representing leaders of the Deltasyndicate, and defending the Heineken kidnappers, as well as various foreign drug lords. He also represents Desi Bouterse, a Surinamese state advisor accused of cocaine trafficking. In a series of insightful conversations with journalist John van den Heuvel, Moszkowicz shares his surprising views on the legal profession, trial strategies, media interactions, professional ethics, and his unique family ties. He also offers a revealing glimpse behind the scenes of several significant ongoing criminal cases.
