The Brief
Book description
This is a non-fictional criminal law/procedure handbook in German for professionals, particularly judges and prosecutors. It deals with the so-called sealing procedures in criminal cases following a dawn raid: the owner of evidence has the right to demand that the evidence is sealed. Accordingly, the police and prosecutors cannot access such evidence until a judge has ruled on prevailing secrecy interests.
Target audience
Professionals, particularly judges and prosecutors.

Design needs
I am looking for a serious-looking but modern, non-clichée cover for an academic book that is targeted at judges, prosecutors and other professionals (not targeted at the broad public, so please no clichée-stuff like handcuffs or lawyer-style advertising material). I like the idea of a figurative element, the cover may thus contain (but not necessarily) an abstract graphic or even a decent stock photo and so on. You can also go into another direction than the designs shown for inspiration. Format: 15,4 cm width, 22,8 cm height Font ideally free of costs for professional publishing
What to avoid
No clichés (such as handcuffs, prison, judge, lawyer-style looks and so on)
It all began with a design brief.
