Frankfurt-based lawyer Arthur Wilms is advising individuals who believe they have been defrauded in online trading and cryptocurrency schemes, according to information available on his firm’s website and through legal directories.
Wilms, who was admitted to the Frankfurt am Main Bar in 2020, focuses his practice on investor protection, particularly concerning losses stemming from online trading, crypto scams, wallet fraud, and misleading investment promises. His firm, Kanzlei Wilms, presents itself as offering “modern, assertive, and economically oriented legal advice,” with expertise extending to banking and capital markets law, property law, and contract law, in addition to representing fraud victims.
The firm’s website details Wilms’ academic background, including law studies at the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, completion of both state legal exams, and a legal traineeship at the Higher Regional Court district of Frankfurt am Main. He offers a free initial legal consultation, requesting a written outline of the case details to provide a preliminary assessment.
Recent reporting by Technokern raises questions about the marketing tactics employed by Kanzlei Wilms, noting a pattern of “lawyer warns of…” articles appearing in search results alongside queries related to investment platforms and potential fraud. These articles, often featuring alarmist headlines, consistently recommend contacting Wilms’ firm. The report suggests a close connection between these warning articles and the firm’s client acquisition strategy.
The German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) has recently increased its warnings regarding unauthorized financial and crypto offerings, particularly concerning “recovery fraud” schemes where victims are pressured into further payments to supposedly reclaim lost funds. A warning issued by BaFin concerns krf-mbh.com, with Wilms providing legal counsel related to the matter, according to an article on anwalt24.de.
Wilms’ contact information, including a phone number (+49 69 380 781 603) and email address (info@anwalt-wilms.de), is publicly available through his firm’s website and legal directories like anwalt.de.
