Specialist Lectures
Insights that create legal certainty.
Specialist lectures & keynotes at the intersection of protection against violence, migration law, and judicial practice.
Plain language instead of legalese – since 2009.
Why a lecture by Dr. Soleimankehl-Hanke?
Domestic violence, flight, and complex family conflicts cannot be solved with legal statutes alone. Your event needs expertise that connects legal theory with the reality of social work and administrative practice.
As a consultant for women's shelters, a lecturer for the German Federal Foreign Office, and an ombudswoman, I know the perspectives of all parties involved: the judiciary, the victims, and the support systems.
Key topics for your event
My lectures are modular and individually tailored to your target audience (symposium, agency management, association meeting).
01. Intersection of Protection Against Violence & Family Law
The classic for symposia. An analytical look at the interdependencies that are often overlooked.

- Exclusion of contact in high-risk cases
- Structural violence & perpetrator strategies (e.g., PAS allegations)
- Rights of children as witnesses to domestic violence
02. Migration, Flight & Interculturality
Specialized knowledge for authorities and multicultural teams. Substantiated by my work for the German Federal Foreign Office.
- Right of residence in the context of domestic violence (§ 31 Residence Act)
- Culturally sensitive legal advice & the interpreter issue
- Refugee women in child custody proceedings
- "Honor" and family pressure as procedural obstacles
03. Modern Dangers & Digital Violence
The update for police, counseling centers, and the judiciary.
