Proceedings affecting money or property can run alongside a criminal case or arise separately. The type of order and the stage of the proceedings determine the advice you need.
Matters we can help with
- Confiscation proceedings
- Restraint orders
- Cash and asset recovery matters
- Money laundering allegations
How we can support you
We can review the allegations or order, explain how the proceedings affect you and advise on the appropriate response. Preparation may involve examining ownership, the source of funds and financial records, with specialist input where needed.
Before your first discussion
Keep a complete copy of any order and the papers served with it. Tell the solicitor about deadlines and any restrictions affecting access to money or property. Seek advice before taking action involving assets covered by an order.
Your funding options
Legal aid may be available, subject to the relevant eligibility criteria. Private funding can also be discussed. We will explain the proposed work and funding arrangements before you decide to instruct us.
