Fraud/Intentional Torts
We act for plaintiffs and defendants in cases involving allegations of financial misconduct and deliberate wrongdoing, such as fraud and conspiracy. We have experience moving quickly to obtain orders freezing assets, including Mareva injunctions and Norwich orders, and working with forensic accountants to trace and locate assets. We also have experience with Anton Pillar orders, including acting as the court-appointed Independent Supervising Solicitor.
We know that a plaintiff’s statement of claim often does not tell the whole story, and we work hard with our defence-side clients to ensure the plaintiff is put to the proof of its case. In addition to defending clients at trial, we also defend them in civil contempt proceedings.
