Case Studies
Wrongful Trading
The defendant directors instructed me in what proved to be a landmark case. Despite poor records, I demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Court that the Company had traded at break-even or better between the date of “no return” and closure. I supported the litigation throughout and gave evidence in Court over 3 days.
Money Laundering- Follow the money
The Crown Prosecution Service instructed me to unravel the transfers of the proceeds of immoral earnings between a complex series of front companies associated with a group of people traffickers, demonstrating that the trail led ultimately to defendants.
Unfair Prejudice
​
The claimant instructed me firstly to track and quantify the extent to which the majority shareholder of the Company (of which he was the minority shareholder) was abusing his position of control to funnel cash into his other business, which subsequently failed anyway.
He instructed me secondly to value the Company in accordance with the Articles and to advise on the mechanics of how an asset splitting solution might be implemented tax effectively.
