Sarah Housley – Cunninghams Solicitors

The complex fraud and crime team at Cunninghams Solicitors is particularly adept at handling multi-jurisdictional organised crime and serious fraud cases, often involving multiple defendants. While practice head David Caplin has built a reputation for handling complex serious fraud, money laundering, and tax evasion investigations, director Sarah Housley, drawing on over 10 years’ experience, handles some of the most serious and high-profile cases of fraud and financial crime. The team is also experienced in the conduct of confiscation and restraint proceedings, particularly under The Proceeds of Crime Act 2002.
