Fraud targets people of all ages and walks of life and has evolved into some of the most sophisticated crimes today. When signs of impropriety or fraud surface, having counsel to defend and protect your assets from potentially devastating consequences or to recover assets is a critical necessity.
We have represented clients involved in some of the most high-profile and complex Ponzi schemes in British Columbia history. In these types of multifaceted cases, we quickly mobilize to pursue the successful recovery of assets, and apply this results-oriented approach with all clients big and small.
This approach speaks to why our team of experienced litigators and multi-practice lawyers are regarded as some of the leading lawyers in Western Canada in the areas of fraud, asset recovery, insolvency and restructuring. Our lawyers have been consistently ranked among the Best Lawyers in Canada and recognized by other prominent publications as leaders in our practice areas.

The tracing and recovery of assets can be a painstaking and complex process. When our lawyers are met with the seemingly impossible task of trying to recover a client’s assets, our diligence, attention to detail and creative methods result in the successful tracing and recovery of the proceeds of fraud. If those routes have been completely exhausted, we work in another direction to find injunctive relief in different forms.
As fraud continues to evolve, so do we. We regularly publish and present on new developments in fraud to ensure our team remains at the forefront of this emerging practice.
On occasion, our clients may call upon our other practice groups to assist in providing the solutions needed to gain other successful outcomes. Our Business Litigation, Banking Insolvency & Restructuring groups are readily available and willing to assist our clients’ needs.
