London Bar > Fraud: crime Tier 3
With ‘a number of very good individuals specialising in fraud’, Foundry Chambers is widely praised as ‘an excellent set’. James Waddington KC has an ‘ability to grasp complex financial facts extremely quickly’ and continues to act in relation to the SFO’s investigation into London Capital and Finance plc. In 2022, Jason Sugarman KC, leading Jessica Tate, defended in a case concerning a boiler room mis-selling rights to mine in Ecuador – the defendant received a suspended sentence. Benjamin Waidhofer , ‘a force to be reckoned with’, recently represented a person who falsely claimed to head the trading desk at Bank of America, convincing members of the public to invest in non-existent products; following his first police interview, the defendant confessed to a second set of frauds on life insurers, falsely claiming to be terminally ill to claim payouts on several policies.Leading Silks
