Regulation - Desktop Hero

Global investigations

Our specialists can support you through every stage of a criminal or regulatory investigation, helping to establish key facts and guide any necessary engagements with regulators or law enforcement agencies

Multi-disciplinary team

We supply the right skills to support you, including criminal lawyers, forensic accountants, former heads of enforcement at anti-fraud and tax authorities, business intelligence experts and compliance specialists.

Global reach

Cross-border issues are complex and need both a global view and local expertise. That is provided by our experts in London, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Beijing, Dubai, Johannesburg, Madrid and Munich.

Cutting edge

We have acted on several precedent-setting cases, including the first prosecution of a 'failure to prevent' bribery offence in the UK.

We help you to navigate internal and sensitive investigations; corporate criminal defence, and risk mitigation programmes. We help organisations and senior people with investigations by law enforcement; financial crime-related audit inquiries, and investigations by anti-corruption and integrity departments of multilateral development banks, NGOs and investigative journalists. We advise on criminal risk mitigation strategies; reputation management; compliance, and preventative reviews.

We support you with subject matter expertise in anti-bribery and corruption; anti-facilitation of tax evasion; anti-money laundering; fraud; modern slavery; economic sanctions; export controls; cultural behaviour; forensic accounting, and business intelligence.
