Criminal / Confiscation

We have acted in a large number of criminal cases, for both the Prosecution and Defence, including Theft, False Accounting, Money Laundering, Fraud, Companies Act / Insolvency Act offences, Counterfeiting and Cheating the Crown. The clarity of our reports and the evidence given has been praised on numerous occasion by the Judiciary, in particular in complex fraud
matters.

As night follows day, Confiscation Orders are swiftly sought following convictions. We have assisted both Prosecutors and Defendants in the preparation and rebuttal of Financial Statements.

Defendants are often astounded by the level of benefit included within Prosecutor's statements. We examine the Prosecution Statement and challenge it where necessary. We understand the Court's approach to benefit and the practical application of the statutory assumptions in 'criminal lifestyle' cases. Our reports are clear and concise, marshalling the relevant facts and information based on a thorough and detailed examination of the Defendant's financial affairs over many years.

Examples of some of the criminal / confiscation matters that we have acted in are set out within the case studies.
