Stokoe Partnership Solicitors has extensive knowledge and experience from dealing with some of the most serious and complex bribery and corruption cases, including high profiles cases such as HBOS, British Aerospace, and Mabey and Johnson.
The Bribery Act 2010 has been described as "the toughest anti-corruption legislation in the world" and its provisions have been reinforced by the Criminal Finances Act 2017.
It provides for criminal offences of bribing and being bribed (both in the public and private sectors) and extends its reach far beyond offences committed within this jurisdiction.

Even if the criminal investigation does not result in prosecution or conviction, there is still the threat of civil action brought by the alleged victims of the fraud.
Our expert fraud lawyers will be able to advise clients on their potential exposure to civil claims, and to help ensure that any tactical and strategic decision taken by the client in any criminal proceedings is made with an eye also on the question of civil liability.
We also know that businesses and individuals investigated for fraud, are often only in that position because they themselves have been placed in that position due to the frauds of others.

The introduction of corporate liability offences for failure to prevent certain types of crime (particularly in relation to bribery & corruption and tax offences), and the adoption of policies by investigating and prosecuting agencies where self-reporting or full co-operation can result in non-prosecution or a deferred prosecution agreement, means that it is often in the interests of a company and its directors to conduct its own internal investigations into wrongdoing as soon as there is suspicion of wrong doing or wrong doing is discovered.
Insolvency is an area of law that governs both personal insolvency, in when an individual is unable to pay his/her debts, and company insolvency, where a company finds itself unable to pay its debts.
Stokoe Partnership Solicitors are experienced in dealing with both personal and corporate insolvency.
We act for creditors trying to recover monies owing to them and for the debtors unable to pay.
We have excellent contacts with Licensed Insolvency Practitioners, who are usually licensed accountants who can act as Trustees in Bankruptcy or Liquidators, and barristers specialising in this field of law.
