POCA Work & Asset Forfeiture - All Circuits
What the Team is Known For
Red Lion Chambers is recognised for its strength in proceeds of crime and has highly regarded practitioners whose expertise runs the gamut of the subject. Members are regularly instructed to both defend and prosecute actions relating to confiscation and asset recovery, money laundering, and account freezing and forfeiture proceedings. Recently, members have been entrusted to lead an appeal on behalf of the World Uyghur Congress, challenging the refusal by the NCA and HMRC to investigate whether companies purchasing garments from Xinjiang, China are acting in violation of POCA and laundering money through the proceeds of sale of goods produced by slave labour.
Mark Bennett is the senior clerk.
