"Peters & Peters also shows the continuing hold that litigation boutiques - as opposed to enormous international firms - have on contentious work" - The Lawyer, 2013

Civil Fraud

We are often involved in cases at the cutting edge of this ever-changing discipline, working closely with leading members of the Chancery and Commercial Bar.

We are constantly involved in emergency interlocutory work for claimants and defendants, and are recognised by leading legal directories as one of the major players in this market.

Services

We pride ourselves on our ability to deliver a hands-on, pro-active service to claimants and defendants, both here and abroad.

We provide multi-disciplinary case teams who are expert in dealing with commercial, civil, regulatory and criminal law issues that civil fraud cases inevitably present.

We use a range of effective orders ranging from domestic and international freezing (Mareva) Orders, to Civil Search and Seizure Orders and where the defendant is likely to flee the jurisdiction, Passport Orders.

We are regularly asked by City law firms to act as Court appointed Supervising Solicitors to oversee the proper execution of Civil Search Orders at commercial and residential properties.

We also deal with investigations and PR crisis management.

International Work

We have close relationships with leading practitioners in many other jurisdictions and are able to instantly create international case teams specialised in tracing, freezing and recovering stolen or misappropriated funds or property.
