A proven track record handling high profile white-collar crime cases

Our fraud & white-collar crime lawyers are experienced in defending complex cases. Our team includes regulatory and financial crime specialists who work with many companies and individuals on sensitive matters that give rise to dealings with law enforcement agencies and regulators worldwide.

With nearly 70 offices globally, we have worked on white-collar crime and investigations involving matters of theft, fraud, dishonesty, money laundering and insider dealing which span multiple jurisdictions. In recent years, we have acted in some of the largest, most high profile cases in this arena with skill and discretion.

We understand the commercial impact of enforcement and members of the team have gained further insight by spending several months with prosecuting authorities.
