Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA) Solicitor

The Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA) 2002 criminalises the use of any property, such as money, shares and goods, which has been obtained through criminal conduct. Examples include tax evasion, bribery and any benefits received as a direct result of a business failing to comply with UK law.

The proceeds of crime act solicitors at JMW are friendly, helpful and will be happy to explain POCA legislation. We are experienced in helping businesses and fellow solicitors protect themselves from spurious allegations, confiscation of assets and breaches of the POCA.
