Fraud & Financial Crime

Fraud covers a wide range of conduct — from an individual accused of a single false claim to organised, multi-defendant conspiracies investigated over years. Financial crime cases typically involve forensic accountants, large disclosure exercises, and, increasingly, confiscation or restraint proceedings under the Proceeds of Crime Act running alongside the criminal case itself.

Whether you've had a knock at the door, a letter inviting a voluntary interview, or you're already facing a restraint order, the earlier you get advice the more options are still open to you.

We instruct counsel with genuine fraud and financial crime experience — including Proceeds of Crime Act and confiscation work — directly into the case, so the same team carries it from the first interview through to any Crown Court trial and, where it arises, the confiscation hearing that follows.

We'll explain what the investigation actually involves, what a voluntary interview means for you, and what steps — if any — can be taken to resolve concerns before charges are brought.

• Advice before and during voluntary or under-caution interviews
• Reviewing financial and forensic evidence as it's disclosed
• Advice on Proceeds of Crime Act restraint and confiscation proceedings
• Representation at every stage through to trial
