Regulatory Prosecutions

Regulatory offences are on the interface of civil and criminal practice and require the specialist advisory and advocacy skills which Compass Chambers demands of its regulatory crime practitioners.

The increasing public scrutiny of the activities of government departments, local authorities, statutory bodies, charities, public and private companies, partnerships and individuals in business has led to the development of a huge range of statutory rules and regulations governing their operations.

Compass Chambers provides counsel at all levels of seniority with experience and proven ability in both the prosecution and defence of all types of regulatory offences. We will provide counsel who are able to give expert advice and advocacy services from the initial stages of investigation through to both trial and, where necessary , courts of appeal.

As part of its service, the regulatory team publishes bi-monthly e-bulletins keeping practitioners up to date with all developments in the regulatory area, click here if you wish to subscribe. For previous editions of the bulletin, click here.
