Areas of Practice

Fraud, Theft, Breach of Trust, and Financial Crimes

Fraud, breach of trust, and charges related to Securities Act and Competition Act violations are defended with the use of multi-disciplinary defence teams. Often our firm will retain on behalf of our clients forensic accountants, auditors, actuaries and market and tax specialists to aid in the comprehensive defence of a client. Often we are engaged to defend charges related to corporate and business dealings that have deteriorated to the point of criminal investigation. Our services have been sought at the early stages of investigation including receivership and bankruptcy. Creditors or shareholders that allege unlawful diversion of corporate assets will seek private intervention that often brings into consideration criminal liability. We at Neuberger Rose are very experienced in working alongside corporate and civil lawyers in protecting the interests of business clients accused of fraud and breach of trust.

Professional discipline matters are also an area of related litigation that our firm has considerable expertise in. Often these arise from criminal allegations, but are commonly initiated without any formal criminal investigation. We have defended matters for lawyers, accountants, brokers, physicians and dentists.
