Our managing partner, Lucinda Nicholls, has spent two days dealing with the Gaming Commission and police interviews. At Nicholls & Nicholls we’re no stranger to regulatory investigations involving lengthy interviews and evidence exchange. For months, we have been engaged in a high stakes operation with several alleged breaches of Gambling Act legislation, and of course, high value money laundering. Years of spreadsheets, CCTV and banking records have been considered. Numerous warrants were executed across several properties, along with several Proceeds of Crime seizures.
The crucial advice that we always tell our clients – Be Prepared!! It is always better to know what to expect than to ‘wing it’ as that mentality never works. Lawyers also have the added skill of knowing what to expect, how to engage, how to gather evidence and how to address the allegations. It’s not easy & expert assistance is always highly recommended.
As this case has progressed, we have instructed Robin Shellard of 5PB and Daniel Jones of 5 St Andrew’s Hill barrister chambers to assist with the legal arguments.
