When your assets are targeted, you need serious legal protection.
Under Jersey law, the authorities can seek to restrain, seize, or confiscate assets believed to represent the proceeds of criminal conduct, whether locally or overseas. These powers are exercised under Proceeds of Crime Law (POCL).
At BCR, our team advise individuals and businesses facing proceedings, whether through asset restraint, confiscation following conviction, or civil recovery actions.
We understand that proceeds of crime actions can feel intrusive, unfair, and overwhelming. Whether you are suspected of benefiting from criminal conduct personally, or caught in the financial fallout of someone else’s case, we provide clear, objective legal advice as to your options and prospects, and skilled representation before the Court.
Excellence: We combine legal knowledge with meticulous preparation to advise you and defend you with clarity and precision.
Delivery: From interview, to charge, to final hearing, we provide prompt, practical support and advice to give you clarity as to your situation and the process so you can make the best possible decisions.
Respect: We understand the personal and professional impact of confiscation proceedings and treat every client with respect.
Elegance: Our advice is clear, objective, and pragmatic. If required, our advocacy is calm and measured, however complex the case or difficult the circumstances.
We have extensive experience representing clients in confiscation proceedings. We ensure our clients know precisely what charge they face, what their options are, and what the potential outcomes are. We then support and advise clients throughout the whole process with the sole focus of achieving the best possible outcome.
