Fraud is an ever-increasing problem. The Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) estimates that US business alone loses around $68 Billion to fraud annually.

We work across the globe with both public and private businesses that have been defrauded or have received the proceeds of fraud, often unwittingly. We can also advise directors and employees caught up in these events.

The protection of a client after a fraud has been perpetrated against them requires an integrated and practical approach to the recovery of the lost assets, or their value. This may involve asserting so-called ‘tracing claims' to assets held by third parties, or negotiating additional or replacement compensation for the client.
