What to do if you being accused or charged with fraud or any other financial offence

This is no doubt a very difficult time for you, but it is imperative that you do a few things quickly in order to ensure that you are treated fairly by the police and the courts, and that this matter results in as little harm as possible to your reputation and career, to say nothing of your freedom!

It is vitally important that you waste no time in doing these three things:

Instruct a solicitor who is a fraud and financial crime specialist.
Follow your solicitor’s advice precisely.
Explain your situation, the accusations against you, and any other facts which may be relevant

Failing to secure the help of an expert solicitor right away could do great harm to your case, and could have dire consequences for your business and for you personally.

Do not consent to be interviewed without a solicitor’s advice.

This cannot be overstated. Especially in the early stages of an investigation, the police will interview witnesses and even suspects without advising them of their right to have a solicitor present to assist them. Ashmans can provide you with an expert financial crime defence solicitor at any time of the day or night. Simply contact us at our 24 Hour Criminal Defence Line, 0208 159 2865. This representation is provided completely free of charge irrespective of your financial circumstances.

Advice from Ashmans Solicitors

The most important piece of advice we can give you without knowing the specifics of your case is to retain the services of a specialist Fraud and Financial Crime solicitor immediately, to tell them all of the relevant facts no matter how embarrassing they may be, and to follow your solicitor’s advice completely.

Your Ashmans financial crime defence team will typically start by:

This is no doubt a very difficult time for you, but it is imperative that you do a few things quickly in order to ensure that you are treated fairly by the police and the courts, and that this matter results in as little harm as possible to your reputation and career, to say nothing of your freedom!

It is vitally important that you waste no time in doing these three things:

  • Instruct a solicitor who is a fraud and financial crime specialist.
  • Explain your situation, the accusations against you, and any other facts which may be relevant
  • Follow your solicitor’s advice precisely.

Failing to secure the help of an expert solicitor right away could do great harm to your case, and could have dire consequences for your business and for you personally.

Your actions in the days, weeks or even hours leading up to an arrest or interview under caution can have a dramatic impact on the eventual disposition of your case, and indeed on your liberty.
Do not assume the matter is concluded simply because you have not heard from the police in a matter of weeks, or even months. Some matters are indeed dropped quickly, but major crimes can take months or even years to generate formal charges, and some cases can be re-opened even years later.
This cannot be overstated. Especially in the early stages of an investigation, the police will interview witnesses and even suspects without advising them of their right to have a solicitor present to assist them.
It is never too late to get a solicitor involved in your defence. If you have already been arrested, interviewed or charged with fraud or financial crime, having a specialist criminal defence solicitor on your side can be a great help to protect your rights, and make sure you are treated fairly by the authorities. It is never too late to get a specialist solicitor involved in your case, but also it is never too early!
