(specialist attorney for medical law) requires proof of ANNUAL CONTINUING EDUCATION in their special fields to a certain minimum extent. The same applies to the certifications of the German Defense Lawyers Association (DSV e.V.) awarded to Professor Dr. Dr. Karsten Fehn and Dr. Dr. Bernd Josef Fehn.
