Practice Areas

Ben advises on the full range of financial crime exposure that businesses face. Having trained and practised as a defence lawyer in the City of London Ben became a board member and the joint-head of bribery and corruption at the UK Serious Fraud Office. There, he led some of the SFO's top contemporary cases, including the prosecution at trial of corporates and their senior executives; the first Deferred Prosecution Agreement; and, separately, what until recently was the largest DPA.

Since joining Freshfields Ben has been instructed on some of the most notable UK and international enforcement matters, including concluding a significant DPA, becoming the first person to have done so on both sides of the table. Ben has recently been representing multiple major UK and international corporates at all stages of government investigations, including HMRC, SFO, SEC and DoJ matters from intelligence stage through to full investigation, resolution and monitorship, covering allegations of fraud, market misrepresentation, money laundering, facilitation of tax evasion and bribery and corruption.
