Richard Sallybanks
Spear’s Review
BCL managing partner Richard Sallybanks specialises in business and financial crime investigations, helping clients navigate a complex field.
‘We aim to take the stress and pressure off of our clients, and to help them navigate their way through the problem,’ he says. ‘The problems we deal with arise in the criminal and regulatory sphere, so for HNWs there will often be challenges surrounding sources of their wealth, establishing the legitimacy of their wealth, and dealing with enquiries and investigations by law enforcement authorities.’
Few have a track record to match Sallybanks’. His extensive run of cases includes numerous Serious Fraud Office, Financial Conduct Authority, HMRC and Competition and Markets Authority investigations and prosecutions.
