Position
Richard Furlong has a mixed criminal and civil practice. He undertakes mainly private work, including pre-charge advice. He defends in white-collar crime but is also instructed in private prosecutions. He is frequently instructed in confiscation and asset recovery, particularly in the Court of Appeal.
He has acted in a number of very high-profile cases including representing the individual accused of planning the “Mother of Satan” bomb attack, and the former leader of the EDL in contempt proceedings. He is instructed in Operation Larkshot, the alleged laundering of £360m by a Leeds-based firm said to involve NatWest Bank and James Stunt, the former son-in-law of F1’s Bernie Ecclestone.
He is regulated on a dual capacity basis and also works for the international law firm Amsterdam & Partners.
He speaks fluent French and has been instructed on behalf of defendants in criminal proceedings in that jurisdiction.
