At MSB, we have extensive experience in Asset Tracing and Recovery.
We are frequently asked to advise where fraudulent activity is suspected and assets have been or are at imminent risk of being dissipated. In such circumstances speed is essential, which is why we utilise the services of specialist investigators who can quickly trace assets worldwide. We then apply for injunctive proceedings to freeze assets before commencing commercial litigation.
The Police do not have the resources to act quickly where fraud is concerned, and this is where specialist legal assistance can pay dividends, quickly identifying and then freezing assets.
All of this means that the ability of our investigators is incredibly important and we work with former high ranking police officers and military professionals with many years of experience of investigating fraud and corruption.
We have acted for many businesses and individuals for whom we have brought litigation through civil proceedings and criminal private prosecutions.
We also have access to unique ethical litigation funding backed by AA rated insurance underwriters at the most competitive rates on the market.

- Search & Seizure: where evidence may be relevant to a claim we can obtain and supervise the search of premises that are not under the control of the claimant.
- We can also seek orders forfeiting passports where there are concerns that defendants may flee the country, and we can assist foreign law firms to enforce judgments ordered abroad and to secure assets.
