Individual Fraud

 

Duncan Lewis Fraud Solicitors – Individual Fraud

 

Duncan Lewis fraud solicitors can advise clients facing charges involving personal fraud or individual fraud at any stage – even before a fraud charge is brought.

 

Individual fraud charges can involve a wide range of circumstances and investigating agencies. Duncan Lewis fraud solicitors have considerable expertise in defending individual fraud charges relating to:

 

  • Benefit fraud
  • Council Tax fraud
  • Credit card fraud
  • False accounting
  • Forgery
  • Housing fraud
  • Immigration fraud
  • Insurance fraud
  • Intent to defraud
  • Mortgage fraud
  • Motor insurance fraud
  • Passport fraud
  • Pension fraud

 

Facing fraud charges as an individual can be especially stressful because investigations may involve a multi-agency approach, with the police or other agencies co-operating in a fraud investigation.

 

Taking legal advice on individual fraud charges at an early stage on an investigation can help prevent charges being brought, and Duncan Lewis fraud solicitors can liaise with the various agencies involved in an investigation relating to individual fraud, including:

 

  • Department for Work and Pensions (DWP)
  • Department of Trade and Industry (DTI)
  • Federation Against Copyright Theft
  • Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)
  • HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC)
  • Health and Safety Executive (HSE)
  • National Crime Agency (NCA)
  • Office of Fair Trading (OFT)
  • Trading Standards
