court rulings

Court rulings can serve as evidence of an expert's competence. The reasons why we cannot and are not permitted to name our numerous clients whom we have supported in crisis situations, both in and out of court, are plausible.

Furthermore, many companies, for example in connection with product extortion, do not want any references to these proceedings and the favorable court rulings even after winning legal cases, because they fear imitation or worry that a stigma will remain on them.

Therefore, we only provide a small selection of cases below in which we were able to provide expert evidence on which the respective chamber ultimately based its verdict.

Successful work in criminal proceedings

Dear Professor Dr. Drommel,
I fondly remember you and your intricate analyses. I owe my acquittal in the second instance at the Osnabrück Regional Court entirely to you and your work. This was after the Lingen Local Court and the judge assigned to the lawyers in the first instance, as well as the Osnabrück Regional Court in the second instance, initially had doubts about the veracity of my statements and the testimony of the witness who claimed that a document used by the public prosecutor's office as the basis for the indictment against me was not, in fact, authored by me. Without you and your expert opinion, I would have been convicted again by the Osnabrück Regional Court, as I had been previously by the Lingen Local Court, resulting in the loss of my license to practice law.
Therefore, thank you again from the bottom of my heart

Anonymous letters

Dear Dr. Drommel,
our entire management team would like to thank you for bringing an anonymous letter writer to justice. Thanks to your expertise and the resulting irrefutable proof of authorship of the anonymous letters, our company has been freed from a very difficult situation. In particular, the manager targeted by the unjustified accusations has regained his job satisfaction. I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your thoughtful, friendly, and consistently goal-oriented collaboration. Companies confronted with anonymous letters will find the best possible support in working with Dr. Drommel to identify the potential authors. Many thanks to Dr. Drommel and his team. Sincerely,

BK Managing Director
Linguistic analysis to identify the author of anonymous and extortion letters

Mr. Drommel provided the crucial information to attribute anonymous defamatory letters and false tax-related accusations made by a former employee to this individual and to substantiate the initial suspicion. This opens the possibility for us to take criminal and civil action against this person.

Founding partner in a consulting firm
Linguistic reports within the context of economic investigations

Dear Professor Dr. Drommel,
we would like to take this opportunity to thank you very much for the many years of professional and successful cooperation.

As an internationally active business investigations agency, we regularly rely on your linguistic expertise with complete confidence in order to offer our clients added value that will stand up in court "without ifs or buts".

The focus here is particularly on identifying the authors of anonymous letters through comparative linguistic analyses, within which you provide – even for linguistic laypersons – comprehensible criteria and corresponding evidence to explain why suspects appear likely to be the authors based on handwriting samples, are in the wider circle, or can be definitively excluded.

This allows our investigations to be much more targeted towards specific suspects, which offers our clients a double advantage: they save time and money.
We're already looking forward to the next exciting project!

Language analysis

My request was accepted quickly and processed promptly. I was quickly introduced to the methodology, and the possibilities were explained to me, including what was not possible with traditional language analysis. Mr. Drommel provided competent explanations and prepared a coherent final report.

Consulting firm
Risk assessment

Unfortunately, we too are increasingly finding ourselves facing a (seemingly) unknown – anonymous – enemy in our company, who is trying to cause harm by passing on inaccurate information to the press, regulatory bodies and investigative authorities.

In such cases, we have been relying on the successful support of linguistic profiler Mr. Drommel for several years now. Even where he is unable to identify the perpetrator, his analysis is very helpful for risk assessment.

The collaboration is reliable, fair, and transparent. Communication channels are short and fast – the cost-benefit ratio is reasonable.

It's reassuring to know you have such a partner by your side in difficult situations!

Dear Professor Drommel,
you helped me and my core project team in an extremely difficult situation. The anonymous letters, some containing veiled death threats, were anything but easy to deal with and led to many sleepless nights. For a long time, we were completely in the dark as to whether we had a "mole" within our core project team and whether this person was also writing the anonymous letters and emails.

Thanks to your highly professional and meticulous linguistic forensics, the circle of perpetrators could be defined more and more narrowly until it was clear who was behind it.

Throughout the entire process, I experienced you not only as a linguistic forensic expert, but also as a calming and empathetic person who not only analyzed the words and sentences, but also provided me with personal support during this unbearable time. I am incredibly happy and grateful that this case could be resolved with your help. Once again, my heartfelt thanks to you, Professor Drommel.
