Liam provides a range of crisis management responses to individuals based in the UK and overseas. He has particular expertise in advising individuals accused of Serious & General Crime, ranging from theft, harassment, malicious communications and public order offences through to serious allegations of sexual misconduct, terrorism, violence, drug offences and homicide. He frequently attends the police station, whether for voluntary interviews or interviews upon arrest, both for children and adults and is regularly instructed to act for the family members of HNW individuals or regulated professionals, who trust him to guide their family members through investigations.

Liam is renowned for his pro-active approach towards investigations, including the preparation of detailed letters of representations, and has a strong track record in concluding investigations with no further action. He is also recognised for his approach that often avoids the need for clients to be interviewed, further protecting them from the risk of criminal liability and exposure to the criminal justice system.

Liam is experienced in dealing with cross-border matters on behalf of politically exposed persons (PEPs) and high-net-worth individuals, including UK Sanctions (in particular the Russia (Sanctions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019), extradition requests and INTERPOL Red Notices.

Alongside his practice, Liam is member of the editorial board of Lloyd’s Law Reports: Financial Crime and has also been published by Financial Regulation International, LexisNexis PSL and Law360.
