Fraud Defence Specialists
A conspiracy to defraud offence is an agreement between two or more people who intend to cause someone harm through dishonesty or deception, and you can be charged even if no money was taken. Courts can hand out prison sentences of up to 10 years under the sentencing guidelines. Whether it’s the police, HMRC or the CPS who have accused you of this offence, our conspiracy to defraud solicitors can help.
Accused of credit card fraud? If the police think more than one person was involved, you could be charged with conspiracy to defraud as well. Our credit card fraud solicitors will go through the transactions, CCTV and device evidence to challenge what’s being said about you. Don’t answer questions without us there.
Fraud by abuse of position is a Section 4 Fraud Act offence and usually involves directors, employees or anyone trusted with someone else’s money. If you’ve been accused, your career and reputation are on the line. Our fraud by abuse of position solicitors will look at what authority you actually had and whether there’s any proof of dishonesty.
Been charged with or accused of fraud by false representation? It’s a Section 2 Fraud Act offence and it comes down to what you said or wrote, and whether it was dishonest. Our fraud by false representation solicitors can be by your side from your initial police interview and start building your defence. Call us 24/7 for legal advice.
Under investigation for insurance fraud? It often starts with an insurer questioning a claim, and you can be prosecuted even if the claim was never paid out. Where others are involved, it can be charged as a conspiracy to defraud too. Our insurance fraud solicitors will review the insurer’s evidence and prepare your defence.
Accused of online or cyber fraud? These cases are built on accounts, devices and payment data, but that doesn’t prove it was you or that you were part of any agreement. Our online fraud solicitors will challenge the digital evidence and be at your side for your police interview. Call us or get in touch 24/7.
