Fraud: Civil - London (Bar)
What the Team is Known For
7 King's Bench Walk houses a strong team of senior and junior barristers experienced in the handling of complex and high-value civil fraud claims. The set is regarded as a strong choice for cross-jurisdictional matters, and is regularly instructed in cases arising in the energy and shipping sectors. Fraud claims involving difficult elements of insurance law are also a key strength for the team. Members are well versed in both obtaining and resisting freezing injunctions, and also routinely advise their clients on asset recovery. The set has recently acted in Maroil Trading Inc v Cally Shipholdings Inc & others, arising out of alleged fraudulent behaviour and related breaches of settlements in a complex web of connected companies and transactions.
