Any major finance centre, onshore or offshore, can unwittingly attract the wrong sort of business. Fraudsters are commercially sophisticated and well used to operating across jurisdictions. What matters is how we react to such situations.
We have a long track record in dealing with such cases and the necessary expertise to advise defrauded companies in recovering assets and banks innocently caught up in the tangle of fraudulent transactions.
Time is usually of the essence and we have sufficient strength in depth at a senior level to speedily put together applications to court for injunctive relief to secure assets and disclosure orders to trace payments away.
We are often instructed in such cases by leading City firms co-ordinating the multi-jurisdictional asset recovery exercise. It is important to understand how to operate as part of a team of lawyers in different countries so as to maximise the prospects of success for the client. We are particularly proud of the professional relationships which we have built up over the years with such firms and with leading members of the English Bar through acting in such cases.
