Acting on both national and international mandates across all key areas of financial crime, Macfarlanes LLP fields a team with ‘strength, depth and a pragmatic approach’. Lorna Emson heads the practice, advising banks, interdealer brokers and oil & gas companies on fraud and financial crime matters involving both criminal and civil elements. Nikolas Ireland is a fraud specialist, while Francis Bond is particularly experienced in transnational crime, assisting clients with AML, overseas confiscation and restraint orders, as well as Interpol Red Notices. Brian Spiro, described as ’famously unflappable and steady under fire’, joined the team from Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer LLP in November 2024.
