Overview
I am a Partner in the Commercial Litigation team in London, specialising in complex investigations, corporate crime and regulatory enforcement proceedings.
I routinely advise clients in relation to business crime and regulatory matters with a particular focus on matters involving alleged fraud, bribery and corruption, money laundering and market misconduct. I successfully defend clients in criminal and regulatory enforcement action and regularly advise clients on compliance and corporate governance issues, particularly in relation to financial crime related policies and procedures for the prevention of fraud, bribery money laundering and tax evasion.
I conduct internal investigations into allegations of criminal and regulatory misconduct and advise corporates and individuals on financial crime investigations and prosecutions brought by the UK authorities, including the Financial Conduct Authority, the Serious Fraud Office, the National Crime Agency, HMRC and the police. I have also acted on dawn raids undertaken by authorities and have broad experience acting on matters with an international element.
Beyond my private practice, I have a strong commitment to pro bono work and social impact issues.
