SA Legal advises both claimant victims of financial crime and accused defendants. We have been instructed to work on some of the most important financial crime matters in the region.

On the claimant’s side, we are aware that many investigations are both costly and time-consuming. While this is sometimes inevitable, our starting point is to make them as quick and effective as possible. Our lawyers are experienced in filing criminal complaints in numerous jurisdictions and liaising with prosecutors. Where a civil recovery route is chosen, we can assist in seeking to obtain civil attachment orders or, in common law jurisdictions, injunctions.

When representing defendants, we approach all our cases with an open mind and seek to put a defendant in the best position possible to fight their case. Not only do we fully investigate and advise on the allegations the defendant faces, but we also advise them on where to locate themselves during the process and on ways to seek to bring matters to a close as soon as possible.

Bringing and defending financial crime claims is complex and evolving. Each case requires a bespoke approach. If you would like to learn more about how we may be able to help you, please get in touch with us.
