HMRC Related Fraud & VAT
EBR Attridge’s Specialist Fraud Solicitors are renowned for their tactical and methodical approach to defending clients in this complex area of law and have been involved in many of the recent and past notable cases before the courts.
HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) fraud is a specialist area of criminal defence and the investigations are by their nature lengthy, complicated and require attention to detail in order to consider the often huge volumes of evidence served. During the early stages of an investigation into tax evasion or VAT irregularities, it is crucial to ensure no errors or misjudgements occur that might prejudice the outcome for a defendant because penalties for HMRC fraud can result in a criminal conviction or significant financial penalties.
At EBR Attridge we have considerable expertise in financial fraud cases, including defending charges relating to:
- HMRC related Fraud and VAT offences
- Vat Evasion
- False claims and Theft
- Conspiracy to defraud HM Revenue and Customs
- Criminal tax fraud
- Embezzlement
- False Accounting
- Forgery
- Tax Evasion
- Money Laundering
- VAT fraud.
Our close relationships with our dedicated pool of leading Barristers and QCs allows us to engage Counsel from the very beginning of your case.
