Why you need Duxton Hill

Fraud, Misconduct and Financial crime are complex matters involving all areas of commercial and public life, and cover many overlapping areas of law. What qualifies as fraud or misconduct differs, depending on the nature of the claim. No single definition is applicable. The complexity is further enlarged because of technological advances providing new and difficult problems of investigation and legal issues coming before the courts. Specialist fraud investigators are vital. Understanding the variety of claims or defences potentially available and most importantly, choosing which claims or defences should be pursued or abandoned demands highly specialised fraud lawyers.

Individuals and/or organisations involved are often understandably confused, anxious and overwhelmed. Their worries about an uncertain future may revolve around costs, reputational loss, the fear of losing life savings or other assets, and in some cases loss of liberty. On top of this the overarching shadow and unpredictability of law enforcement and other government agencies remains omnipresent.

Invariably individuals or corporations turn to law firms who provide services in various facets of law but do not have specialist fraud lawyers or access to specialist fraud investigators. They therefore lack valuable insight and expertise and the downstream ramifications of such cases. Regrettably the outcome will be predictable: lack of cohesion and communication between lawyers and other professionals tasked to investigate or analyse evidence, substantial and unnecessary costs, frustration, time delays and poor outcomes.
