A finance professional was charged with embezzlement. He pled guilty and was sentenced to a period of imprisonment. On his release the company involved brought civil proceedings for claimed losses. The case was defended, and proceeded as a commercial action before the Court of Session.
A large quantity of financial records had to be analysed in order to establish the true level of loss. The detailed analysis allowed a robust position to be taken in negotiations, leading to a positive outcome for the client.
This case demonstrates the firm’s ability to deal with the wider aspects of criminal allegations, including civil proceedings for recovery of losses.
