FRAUD AND FINANCIAL CRIME
Our renowned white collar criminal lawyers are called upon to advice on some of the most complex fraud and financial crime cases.
Our team of specialists provides comprehensive advice to clients on all aspects of criminal and civil fraud and financial crime.
Fraud and financial crime are on the rise. The issues are often complex and cross-border. Our team can help you. We have built a global network of legal and forensic professionals through strong links with other law firms and international associations which we look to in order to ensure that our clients are properly advised throughout the process.
Criminal and civil frauds frequently intersect, and with our expertise in both, we are able to provide our clients with straightforward, easy-to-understand advice.
We regularly advise on the consequences of fraud from a criminal, civil and regulatory perspective. If required, we can also advise you on an asset search and recovery process which can be imperative in an increasingly globalized world.
We represent individuals and businesses under investigation by the Serious Fraud Office (SFO), National Crime Agency (NCA), Police, Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), HMRC and Department for Business Energy and Industrial Strategy and Skills (BEIS).
We also advise businesses on fraud prevention and compliance policies and procedures, which is essential given the trend of increasing legislation targeting corporate criminal conduct.
In addition to advising on preventative measures, we conduct internal investigations involving early identification of wrongdoing, fact-finding and self-reporting advice.
And when businesses or wealthy individuals have been victims of fraud, we help them uncover and preserve the evidence. Our lawyers are experienced in presenting complex board-level information in an easy-to-understand format to aid the decision-making process on the appropriate legal action to take.
