Banking Fraud Solicitor

Duncan Lewis Banking Fraud Lawyer

Banking litigation can often involve disputing losses on a bank account as a result of banking fraud, including monies stolen from a bank account as a result of unauthorised payments, fraudulent cheques, cyber crime and banking scams.

Banks must put in place mechanisms to protect their customers against fraudulent activity on accounts – but when banking fraud occurs and a customer faces a loss, a bank may try to defend a claim for compensation or financial redress, leaving the customer out-of-pocket and sometimes in serious financial difficulty.

Customers who have fallen prey to banking scams can lose thousands of pounds – and in these cases, Duncan Lewis banking litigation solicitors can examine the fine detail of any banking agreement to establish liability for the loss and whether a claim for banking fraud can be made against a bank.

The main types of banking fraud Duncan Lewis can advise on include:

• Account takeovers
• Bank account fraud
• Bank card fraud
• Cheque fraud/Counterfeit cheque fraud
• Cyber crime bank fraud
• False accounting
• Hacking
• ID theft
