What the Team is Known For
5 King's Bench Walk is recognised for the quality of its offering, having "a diverse range of talent and various members who are top tier specialists in their fields." Sources describe the set's members as "standout individuals who provide astute advice, skilful representation and exceptional client care." Representing both prosecution and defence, the set is routinely instructed by the Serious Fraud Office (SFO), the Crown Prosecution Service and the Financial Conduct Authority, as well as on behalf of individuals and corporations facing allegations of financial wrongdoing. Members cover the full range of financial offences from fraudulent trading to tax evasion and bribery and corruption, including large-scale and international mandates. Members of the set recently acted for the SFO in relation to a long running investigation and prosecution of corruption arising from contracts for the supply and maintenance of military equipment to Saudi Arabia.
