Join Henry Skudra for a webinar, delivered in partnership with MBL Seminars, tackling one of the most challenging and fast-evolving areas of proceeds of crime.

Whether as part of the defence case or seeking simply to assert rights in assets, third parties now frequently feature in or appear as standalone parties in confiscation and forfeiture proceedings. The exponential increase in financial applications and proceedings by public authorities under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 has led to an increasing involvement of third parties in litigation. Their involvement introduces complex legal, procedural, and practical challenges that cannot be ignored.
