Business Crime Solicitors
Business Crime Solicitors
Business crime investigations can be complex, and if you are facing allegations of wrongdoing, you are advised to speak to expert business crime solicitors without delay. Reacting promptly to circumstances and taking steps to protect your position early on in the investigation are essential.
At Parnell and Peel, we can provide you with representation right from the start, ensuring that the police, investigators, and prosecuting authorities do not infringe your rights and that we have access to all relevant information.
Involving experienced white collar crime solicitors during the investigation stages will give you the best chance of preventing charges from being brought. We can work to collate the documentation provided and ensure that your position is safeguarded as far as possible.
Where errors are made by the authorities, for example, a failure to follow the correct procedure in handling your case, or we believe there is insufficient evidence against you, we can move to have the investigation dropped.
We have many years of experience and an excellent track record of success in defending our clients. We hold the Law Society’s Criminal Litigation accreditation, awarded to law firms that have a high level of knowledge and skill.
To speak to one of our business crime solicitors today, please call us on 033 00532252 or make a Free Online Enquiry for immediate assistance. All enquiries are completely confidential.

Defending Business Crime Offences
Investigating authorities have wide powers to seize computers and records, using these to try to establish guilt. We will check that the correct process is used in any search and seizure situation and check exactly what information is taken.
We have a strong understanding of the focus of white collar crime investigations, and we will take steps to establish your innocence wherever possible. In some cases, it may be possible to negotiate a solution with investigators, avoiding the need for court.
Should business crime charges be brought against you, we will put together a comprehensive defence on your behalf. We will ensure that you have the preparation and support you need before any interviews or hearings, and provide you with an expert business crime advocate if your case reaches court.
Where necessary, we will identify any mitigating circumstances and ensure that these are put to the judge.
Protecting Your Reputation
We know that facing an investigation or business crime charges can be very damaging to your reputation and that of your organisation. We will work proactively to give you the support you need in defending your position and managing the difficult situation while your case progresses.
Where necessary, we provide advice and representation in respect of the freezing of assets and restraint orders.
