Financial Crime: Private Prosecutions

Howard Kennedy's Business Crime team are experienced in launching private criminal prosecutions on behalf of corporates, charities, high-net-worth individuals and family offices.We provide clients with holistic advice on the criminal and civil law remedies available to them as victims of fraud and economic crime.

We represent companies and individuals in all manner of private prosecutions. Whether you find yourself the victim of fraud, forgery, or have suffered economic loss as the result of dishonest behaviour, you'll have a team behind you working hard to take the stress out of the situation.

We advise corporates on bringing action against dishonest or fraudulent employees, and help businesses to use criminal enforcement to protect their intellectual property. We also help charities bring criminal prosecutions to protect them from fraud - whether within their organisation or committed against it.

Our team advises each of our clients on the best course of action suited to their particular case. When a private prosecution may not be the appropriate response, our civil fraud lawyers and commercial litigators can advise on civil remedies available to seek justice and to assist with the recovery of assets.
