Our practice is intentionally focused on civil fraud, asset recovery and their neighbouring disciplines. Below is a summary of the mandates we most often accept.

  • Norwich Pharmacal and Bankers Trust applications
  • Proprietary and tracing claims through offshore structures
  • Enforcement of judgments and arbitral awards abroad
