Our global expertise in private prosecutions is unmatched. Our specialist team includes a number of former prosecutors in key jurisdictions where private prosecutions can be brought, such as Canada, the UK, Hong Kong and Australia.
With nearly 70 offices worldwide our team has the strength and depth to advise companies and individuals on the most complex matters which may be the subject of a private prosecution, including fraud, cyber/data breaches, intellectual property and trademark violations.
Clyde & Co has its own in-house forensic accountants, investigators and business intelligence department based in the UK which can research open source material and uncover valuable information. We also work with a number of world leading forensic accounting and asset tracing firms.
We advise how and when private prosecutions can be brought or operate in parallel to existing civil proceedings, and on which is the most appropriate option, including costs. Our civil fraud and litigation departments also work with third-party litigation funders.
