We help clients protect against enforcement of global assets from hostile actions by adverse parties including governments. From freezing orders to asset forfeiture proceedings, we build and execute offensive or defensive strategies that work under urgent and sensitive circumstances, including matters involving scams and asset recovery.
We move quickly to trace and recover assets through litigation and negotiation, often across multiple jurisdictions. For clients facing allegations, we offer strategic advice to protect their interests and respond effectively.
When assets are at risk of being hidden or moved, we obtain urgent freezing orders to preserve their value. Acting for either applicants or respondents, we ensure a fair process while minimising business disruption.
Securing a judgment is only the beginning. Enforcing it across borders demands in-depth knowledge of local legal systems. We develop and execute global enforcement strategies and defend against improper or unenforceable claims.
Hidden assets frequently arise in fraud and insolvency matters. We use forensic tools and international networks to trace them, supporting both recovery efforts and the defence of clients under investigation or facing claims.
