Mr. Steller exclusively handles criminal cases. He prefers to handle cases in which a great deal of forensic research has been done. His background in mathematics, physics and chemistry help him to really fathom and dispute reports on, for example, DNA, a bullet trajectory or the discovery of drugs. Especially in cases of morality and violence such reports play a role. In addition, Mr. Steller also handles fraud cases, deprivation cases and cases of underage suspects. Well-known cases in which Mr. Steller has acted include the Tjeukemeer murder, the mega mortgage fraud case Peseta and the antibiotics fraud case Carrano.

 

For years, Mr. Steller was the foreman of the lobby for maintaining the system of funded legal aid. He was on the board of the Dutch Association of Young Defence Counsel from 2015 to 2018. He is currently a member of the Examination Board (criminal law subjects) of the Vocational Training for the Legal Profession.

I am in Pi Hoogvliet. After 20 minutes of waiting, a custodian honestly admits that they haven't called my client yet. As I walk back to my consultation room, I hear another custodian tell him that he had better be a little less honest with me.
