Career

Paul leads our Corporate Crime and Investigations practice group.

Paul specialises in managing internal investigations for clients when something has gone wrong in the organisation. He advises and supports clients facing investigation by criminal authorities and specialist regulators. Paul conducts investigations for international clients in the UK and in overseas jurisdictions – he regularly works as part of a global client team.

He understands the importance of developing relationships of trust with regulators and authorities, and helps clients develop those relationships while protecting their interests. He is an experienced criminal and civil litigator, but specialises in resolving matters away from the courtroom.

Paul's experience of managing regulatory events enables him to deliver practical compliance advice to protect against corporate governance failures arising in the first instance.
