Civil Fraud & Asset Tracing
Our lawyers are experienced in dealing with civil and equitable fraud claims, allegations of unlawful conduct against directors and allegations of money laundering. Often such allegations form part of a shareholder's claim for minority oppression, an application to appoint provisional liquidators or injunctive relief.
We also have significant experience in actions taken to preserve property and restrain unlawful dealings in assets, for example, by obtaining (or defending) freezing and disclosure injunctions. We often work with investigators and forensic accountants to identify assets subject to litigation and to adopt strategies to have them retained pending the outcome of a case.
