Fraud

It’s the last thing your business needs - but if it does occur, you need a legal team equipped for the challenge. Our dedicated fraud and financial crime lawyers act for corporate clients and individual board members in the financial services, energy, oil and gas, construction, utilities, transport, media, leisure and education sectors.

With extensive experience at the highest level, especially in financial services, we regularly advise major financial institutions. We have built strong relationships with key prosecuting bodies, which helps ensure a harmonious joint approach if you’ve become the subject of regulatory investigations or prosecution. We can give your in-house fraud and compliance teams dedicated support if they’re conducting internal investigations or dealings with law enforcement agencies and regulators.

We’re a truly global law firm, so if you’re facing issues from overseas regulators, investigators or prosecutors, we’re already plugged into those networks. We’ve helped our clients trace and recover millions of pounds in misappropriated assets, often from overseas jurisdictions. And our experience is not confined to litigation; we can advise you on money laundering systems, asset tracing, anti-bribery and corruption programs, whistle-blowing systems and other systems and controls to avoid corporate fraud.

Our team can help your business build up resilience to these risks too. We’ll put our legal experience to good use and design compliance and training programs for you around issues like bribery, corruption and money laundering, as well as internal corporate governance. Our focus is always on helping your business take the right steps to minimize liability and risk, protect your reputation, and get on with doing what you do best.
