Regulatory Offences

Regulatory law breaches and investigations

If you are facing Criminal or Civil allegations from a Regulatory Body, or are being investigated, we understand that it can be extremely daunting. At Lostock Legal, we offer comprehensive legal services to guide businesses and individuals through the intricacies of regulatory law, ensuring that your rights are protected and defended from the outset of proceedings and throughout your case.

Investigations

If you are the subject of an investigation, we can represent your interest throughout. We can engage in negotiation and settlement with the Regulatory Bodies to ensure favourable outcomes.

In cases where there is an alleged crime, we can attend with you and advise in any interview under caution or take over the conduct of the case when you have already been interviewed and released under investigation. We can also deal with any cases where any Government Body or department has become involved, and we are able to liaise with them on your behalf.

Disciplinary hearings and Court proceedings

Disciplinary hearing and proceedings can have serious repercussions on your professional standing. Our legal experts will collect evidence that will strengthen your case and challenge any unjust allegations but also work to minimise any potential penalties and preserve your professional reputation.

We advise and represent regulated professionals such as:

• Solicitors and barristers
• Accountants
• Financial advisers, investment managers, and other FCA approved persons
• Healthcare Professionals – GMC, GDC, NMC, GPhC
• Senior executives, senior managers, and directors of financial services businesses

We can also advise in relation to the following regulatory areas:

• Health and Safety Executive (HSE)
• Trading standards
• Environment Agency
• RSPCA
• Food Safety
• Public Enquiries and Inquests

We have successfully represented a number of clients in relation to allegations by the GMC and GPhC. Following diligent case preparation, we were able to safeguard the careers of the professionals involved.
