Giles Bark-Jones
Spear’s Review
Not many financial crime specialists are as well acquainted with high-profile work as Bark & Co principal Giles Bark-Jones. He has undertaken some of the heftiest financial crime and fraud cases of recent years, such as that of UBS trader Kweku Adoboli and the Cheney & Son pension fund fraud – the largest theft from a pension fund since the infamous case involving Robert Maxwell and the Mirror Group.
The versatility of Bark-Jones’s experience – and his knack for getting results – characterises the firm he founded in 1996. ‘Whatever your background, and whatever the legal issue is, you will always find us to be professional and friendly, authoritative yet approachable, understanding and non-judgemental,’ according to the firm. ‘We exist to serve you, and to robustly fight your corner to the absolute limit the law allows.’
