Fraud is one of the most commonly committed crimes in this country. If you are accused of fraud it can land you with implications which can have severe, detrimental effects on all aspects of your life. Fraudulent behaviour is defined as criminal activity which is carried out to gain financial advantage at the cost of another person, business, company or organisation. Crimes of fraud can be committed against a specific individual or they can be carried out against the government. It is dishonest behaviour and it is dealt with severely in court. Here at ABV Solicitors we have defended high-profile cases and we have specialist experience in dealing with fraud crimes. We are recognised as one of the leading defence solicitors in the country and we provide a nationwide service, supporting international clients also where necessary.
