- Confiscation/Restraint Proceeding and Family Restraint
Osbornes has acted in a number of Matrimonial Cases and Financial claims where one of the parties has been involved in Confiscation Proceedings.
We represented the Wife in the leading case of X v X (Crown Prosecution Service Intervening) 2005.
Where your assets have been restrained or confiscated by the Court due either to allegations regarding your own criminal conduct or due to the conduct of someone else then we can advise you as the strength of your claim to retain assets and can represent you in proceedings to protect your interest in those assets.
It is important if you find yourself in a position where assets are being confiscated or restrained that you obtain specialist legal advice as soon as possible so to maximise your chances of protecting your interest. This can help in preventing costs escalating and in gathering evidence. Family proceedings run in conjunction with confiscation / restraint proceedings can often become complex and the evidence bulky in a very short period of time.
We have significant experience of dealing with the Crown Prosecution Service, Revenue and Customs Prosecutions Office and the Serious Organised Crime Agency and have been involved in litigation regarding the division of assets after high profile investigations and arrests and are well placed to advice in this very specialist and complex area of law.
