We conduct internal investigations for clients who suspect that something has gone wrong within their business. We advise and support clients facing investigation by the police and specialist regulators. Where the issue is based in Scotland, we have developed relationships of trust with regulators and prosecutors over two decades.
We understand how to best represent our clients' interests in the courtroom but we also recognise the disruption that court proceedings can cause for an organisation.
Our experience of helping clients to recover from incidents means that we understand the importance of delivering solutions that prevent compliance events arising in the first instance. We do that by providing practical advice on the steps which will reduce risk, such as cultural changes, due diligence measures, and improved policies and procedures.
When we advise clients who are responding to an incident and facing investigation or prosecution our focus is to protect the hard-won reputations that are built over the life of a business.
We advise companies, financial institutions and senior individuals in the areas of anti-money laundering, bribery and corruption, fraud, environmental crime, financial crime, international sanctions, proceeds of crime and tax and VAT fraud.
