The transfer and the obligation to return property
We review the agreement behind the transfer, the permitted use and any obligation to deliver or return the assets. The relationship between the parties helps distinguish a contractual dispute from alleged misappropriation.
Tracing what happened to the assets
Contracts, transfers, receipts and correspondence help establish the sequence of events. We examine the alleged loss and available explanations without treating every unpaid amount as a criminal offence.
Defence or assessment of criminal action
If a complaint has been made against you, we review the allegations and the records of the transfer. For an affected party, we assess the basis for criminal action, evidence of the loss and a claim where appropriate.
