Corporate Lawyer – Fraud - Discontinued


This was a case of fraud in the millions across the UK, South Africa and Ireland and involved a number of individuals who had been on the run from the UK authorities for many years.

The solicitor had been acting for parties in a transaction, but the police suggested that the business deal was a small part of a complex web of fraud which involved a business being sold under duress, kidnappings and blackmail. The police suggested that the solicitor must have known, but it was clear that the solicitor only dealt with the UK arm of the business and was not connected to any of the other individuals in South Africa/ Ireland. All matters were discontinued. 


What Our Clients Are Saying

 

“They assemble a team once they have identified what the client wants and needs. The same team then remains throughout, which makes the entire process seamless.”

"Fighting for my liberty, fighting for justice, fighting so all those people from my family and amongst my friends who had fought against terrorists and had lost their lives did not feel that I had let them down. I was not a terrorist.”

"Particular thanks to my defence team, led by my solicitor Sajad Chaudhury and my barristers, led by Simon Kealey QC, Ray Singh and Ian Hudson, who all fought tirelessly over the years and went over and above what was expected.” - Press Quote ,Andy Star

 

“I had been to five solicitors before I had my meeting with Harewood Law, I was worried about the effect of negative press on my families celebrity status. But from the first meeting I knew they were the right firm. The press had gathered for my case, but wrote very little after my case was dismissed in court. At every stage I could see the quality of their work, they were relentless in their pursuit of justice. They are a top-tier firm and I cannot recommend them enough.”

 

“The experts they put together, identified so many issues with the phone evidence in the case, that the evidence was actually withdrawn. The prosecution decided they would not rely on it. It really helped my case.”

 

”I had worked in the  Finance and Banking sectors previously but was charged with money laundering nearly a million pounds through a complex web of accounts. The top tier service provided by Harewood Law resulted in my acquittal after a four year ordeal. I cannot recommend them enough.”
