Three Raymond Buildings has a long-established reputation as a leading set for all types of financial crime, including fraud, white-collar crime, bribery and corruption, money laundering, tax evasion and anti-competitive conduct. We are well known for our superior advocacy and commercial acumen, and are regularly instructed to prosecute or defend complex and high-profile matters.
We advise and represent individuals and corporations at all stages of the criminal process. This includes providing critical pre-charge advice, which can often result in the avoidance of proceedings altogether. Our expertise in restraint and confiscation proceedings enables us to advise our clients in any parallel or subsequent proceedings under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002.
We are able to draw on our extensive experience in dealing with international or multi-jurisdictional matters, as well as our expertise in mutual legal assistance and extradition, to meet the challenges posed by the increasingly globalised nature of fraud investigations and prosecutions.
Members of Chambers have been appointed to the Serious Fraud Office’s list of Panel Counsel and have acted as Standing Counsel to the Department of Business, Innovation and Skills.
Our expertise in fraud extends to civil and commercial fraud claims initiated in the UK and abroad, either as stand-alone claims or alongside threatened or ongoing criminal or regulatory proceedings.
Members of Chambers write and lecture about fraud and related subjects and have co-authored some of the key texts in the area including: Simon Farrell KC, Guy Ladenburg and Nicholas Yeo, Blackstone’s Guide to the Fraud Act (OUP 2007); Alexander Cameron KC (contributor) Fraud: Criminal Law and Procedure (OUP 2010); Simon Farrell KC and Nicholas Yeo, Money Laundering Law and Regulation: A Practical Guide (OUP) (2011).
