Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA) and confiscation

Where confiscation proceedings are brought following a conviction, the support of an expert in the Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA) will be essential for achieving the best possible result.

Our Newcastle Proceeds of Crime Act solicitors can provide support on confiscation proceedings and various other associated matters, such as cash seizure and forfeiture proceedings, account forfeiture, restraint orders and civil enforcement.

Business defence

Failing to react quickly to regulatory or criminal investigations involving your business could leave you vulnerable to the prospect of heavy penalties and/or prosecution. No matter the surrounding circumstances, it is essential to understand your options and what approach you need to take.

Our business defence lawyers in Newcastle can advise and represent your organisation on all manner of issues, from allegations of bribery and corruption, through to serious fraud, money laundering and environment agency investigations and prosecutions.

Fraud defence

Prosecutions brought under the Fraud Act 2006 can often prove extremely serious. A guilty verdict can result in serious fines and lengthy terms of imprisonment, in addition to irreversible reputational damage.

With specialist expertise in this field, our fraud defence solicitors in Newcastle will be by your side to carefully guide you through every stage of a fraud case, whether you are acting as an individual or on behalf of a business.

Prison law advice

It should go without saying that imprisonment can be an extremely daunting and upsetting prospect. It is therefore important to understand exactly how the prison system works and what actions a prisoner and their loved ones can take to ensure they are treated fairly at all times.

Our prison law solicitors in Newcastle regularly work with both prisoners and their families, assisting with a range of matters, including Parole Board reviews, prison transfers, prisoner welfare complaints and re-categorisation.
