White Collar Crimes
Our firm delivers strong defense and advisory services in matters of white-collar crime, recognizing the profound personal and professional impact such allegations can have on individuals and companies. We have extensive experience representing clients facing inquiries, investigations, and prosecutions for financial and corporate offenses. This includes cases of alleged fraud, embezzlement, corruption, money laundering, cybercrime, and corporate regulatory offenses. Our lawyers regularly handle proceedings initiated by Pakistan’s key investigative agencies, such as the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) and the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), and are well-versed in the special statutes governing these proceedings (e.g., NAB Ordinance, Anti-Money Laundering Act, Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act, etc.). We provide counsel at all stages: during the inquiry phase, we advise clients on how to respond to agency notices and interviews, aiming to prevent escalation. If an investigation turns into formal charges, our team mounts a vigorous defense in trial courts and accountability courts, meticulously examining the prosecution’s evidence and asserting our clients’ rights. We have successfully secured pre-arrest bail, post-arrest bail, and acquittals for clients in high-profile white-collar cases. Our clientele in this area has included top corporate executives, bank officials, public office holders, and professionals, underscoring our ability to manage sensitive cases discretely and effectively. Beyond defense, we also help corporations implement compliance programs and internal investigations to detect and prevent fraud or misconduct. In every matter, our priority is to protect our clients’ rights, reputation, and liberty by leveraging our deep knowledge of financial laws and our courtroom experience in white-collar crime defense.
