Burness Paull LLP
The corporate crime team at Burness Paull LLP offers a deep bench of dedicated specialists in key areas of financial crime, providing contentious advice on regulatory investigations and on the non-contentious side, advising on compliance issues covering everything from whistleblowing and fraud to anti-bribery and corruption. The practice, which has developed a strong niche advising on sanctions arising from the Ukraine/Russia conflict, is led by the highly experienced Lynne Gray, whose particular expertise in the offshore energy industry is utilised when advising on crisis response management including dawn raids and international sanctions issues. She is heavily supported by director Lynne Moss, who has a formidable track record on a diverse range of regulatory and financial crime matters, from anti-bribery and corruption to exports and sanctions.
