Insolvency and transactions involving assets
Payment difficulties do not in themselves establish a criminal offence. We examine the alleged facts, the transactions and their timing, distinguishing the different proceedings and types of conduct that may be investigated.
Debts, creditors and the sequence of events
We review debt records, asset transfers, accounts and related enforcement or insolvency proceedings. Their sequence helps explain the context and the alleged loss.
Assistance for defendants and creditors
We assess defence in cases involving alleged criminal insolvency or concealment of assets. For creditors, we examine whether criminal action is justified and how it relates to other claims, without treating separate legal routes as interchangeable.
