When you’re staring down the barrel of a prosecution our advice and representation will get you through. 

Prosecutions &
Enforcement Actions

Obsequium acts for corporations and individuals in some of the most complex prosecutions and enforcement actions brought by regulators, law enforcement and statutory authorities.

Increased scrutiny from regulators has seen a rise in the number of criminal prosecutions against corporations and their people for breaching regulatory obligations.

Significant civil and criminal penalties apply, including hefty fines and lengthy prison terms, not to mention the negative publicity and risk to reputation.

Clients turn to Obsequium because of our strong background in complex criminal defence work, together with our in-depth experience in regulatory and compliance law. Our lawyers provide the clarity and certainty clients need to defend any allegations.

We work closely with you to explore all potential options, and communicate complex legal issues in a way that’s easy to understand.

We keep it simple, tell it how it is, and focus on what matters. You stay informed across the entire matter, so you feel confident knowing you’re in very capable hands.
