The Regulation and Financial Crime team :
Every year we are all becoming more regulated by the powers that be, both in our private lives and at work. As a result, we have established a new Regulation and Financial Crime Unit to offer further legal services to our existing and new clients.
We are pleased to announce that Andrew Swan has joined us to lead the new team. Andrew is an experienced Newcastle solicitor in all regulatory matters and also has particular expertise in financial crime cases.
The team will provide advice on compliance with the vast expanse of today’s regulatory laws, such as health and safety, environmental matters, money laundering and so on. This may include advising on policies and procedures to ensure compliance with the regulations, together with expert advice in dealing with investigations and prosecutions by the various national regulatory bodies, from HMRC to the local trading standards department.
The team also offers expert advice on white-collar crime, such as fraud, corruption and trade mark infringements, as well as dealing with Restraint Orders and confiscation proceedings.
Clients may also wish to receive advice on licensing issues or road traffic matters, such as speeding offences, drink driving and totting up.
To find out more, please do not hesitate to contact Andrew on (0191) 2111 503 or at as@srflegal.co.uk
