Olliers

Partner

Richard joined Olliers in 2023 and specialises in representing persons under investigation or facing fraud prosecutions and financial crime. Richard has acted in many of the largest and most high profile cases ever prosecuted by the Serious Fraud Office, Financial Services Authority, HMRC and the Crown Prosecution Service and frequently advised professionals and directors who are the subject of regulatory investigation.

Richard has a proven record in successfully halting cases during the course of an investigation before charges are brought. Most of our clients are of  impeccable character and are naturally concerned as to the damage to reputation that would follow a court appearance.

Richard has extensive experience (over 30 years) of representing clients facing an interview under caution or Section 2 Criminal Justice Act as well as advising and representing clients facing the threat of their assets and bank accounts (business and personal) being frozen.

Our successful experience over many years enables us to guide and support clients through what is often the most stressful period in their lives.
