Morgan Rose is a leading City firm providing services to both individuals and corporate clients who find themselves subject to a criminal investigation, or prosecution particularly for offences where the allegation is one of serious fraud.
This includes any allegation of serious financial impropriety including tax investigations of all descriptions, allegations of money laundering, fraud, insurance fraud, mortgage fraud, false accounting and fraudulent trading and offences under the Copyright, Designs & Patents Act 1988 - particularly for internet service providers. We have considerable expertise and knowledge of defending cases involving insurance fraud particularly where the issue relates to those practising in the Personal Injury market.
Through our involvement with headline cases concerning alleged infringements of the Copyright, Designs & Patents Act 1988 we are experts in the field of Peer to Peer websites and file sharing. Private prosecutions are routinely brought by Trading Standards and private trade federations for these alleged offences and we have a wealth of experience in defending such cases.
We routinely defend cases brought by the most organised and well funded prosecuting authorities including: the Serious & Organised Crime Agency, the Economic Crime Directorate of the Metropolitan Police, City of London Fraud Squad, the Special Casework Directorate of the Crown Prosecution Service , the Fraud Prosecution Service and the Serious Fraud Office (SFO).
We aim to be the first involved, right at the outset of arrests or searches of property to ensure that our clients receive the best representation in such serious circumstances for them. There is no substitute for expert advice at the early stages, or indeed any stage.
Laws in the form of the Fraud Act 2006, the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 and the Enterprise Act 2002 and the Financial Services & Markets Act 2000 create such a wide range of criminal offences that even those who least expect it can become suspects in criminal investigations.
We have a team of lawyers able to attend Police interviews with clients, on an emergency basis (including out of hours).
Morgan Rose is a long standing member of the Specialist Fraud Panel and will accept publicly funded clients.
