Financial Crime & Fraud
The authorities are increasingly aggressive with regard to investigating and prosecuting Fraud and Financial crime. We expect this to intensify, particularly in the event of an economic downturn.
If you are accused of a financial crime or fraud, then you need a legal team with extensive, specialised experience of handling such cases. Above all, you need a team who understand the mindset of the prosecuting agencies, corporate culture, who understand the detail of finance and accounting, and who are completely on top of the relevant legal issues.
"We understand how fraud or corporate crime proceedings can lead to adverse publicity, affecting both personal and professional reputations"
Our specialist knowledge and contacts in this field, allow us to build a tailored and outstanding team of lawyers and experts, to fiercely represent you.
We recognise and understand the emotional and financial stress that results from such investigations, which can often last many years. We have a team of experts who can assist in relation to managing your mental well-being.
We will tailor a defence team to ensure we defy the odds, defend you fearlessly and deliver you the best successful outcome.
The Garrick Law team are experienced and understand the mindset of respective prosecuting agencies.

We understand how Financial Crime and Fraud proceedings can lead to adverse publicity, affecting both personal and professional reputations.
For high profile, public or senior executives figures, an unproven allegation can lead others to question your fitness for office. Publicity in such situations is often unfair, misleading and damaging. You will find it difficult to manage this yourself whilst also concentrating on getting a successful outcome for your case.
Our team at Garrick Law can manage this situation for you.
