Serious Fraud and Business Crime
Over many years we have gained very substantial experience in providing advice and representation to clients prosecuted by the Serious Fraud Office, Police Serious Fraud Crime Units, the Department of Trade and Industry, HM Revenue & Customs, the Financial Services Authority and other regulatory authorities. Prior to any Court proceedings, we provide advice and representation during the investigatory stage of such matters.
It is our experience that such investigations and Court proceedings are very protracted in their length and require detailed, expert and specialist knowledge and representation. We have acted in some of the most complex high profile cases prosecuted in England and Wales, including R v Shahi, Sharma & Sharma (Operation Swale), described as the biggest visa fraud prosecution ever brought by the Home Office. We represented JF who was acquitted in relation to a multi million pound student visa fraud (R v Kao & others).
The firm is a member of the VHCC Panel (Very High Cost Case Panel) which is a panel of solicitors able to undertake serious and complex cases of crime and commercial fraud under the Legal Aid Scheme, and which has effectively replaced the Serious Fraud Panel.
