Business Defence
Despite the best laid plans and most careful risk management procedures, your business could find itself investigated by one of the statutory authorities. Worst of all, it could be convicted.
Any level of action can be costly, in terms of both time and expense and the potential damage to your business's reputation.
Our Business Defence team can help you with legal and strategic advice and assistance, as well as practical and effective post-incident risk management. You can be confident that you have on board not only the higest calibre lawyers but also exceptional business people, acutely aware of your needs and very conscious of the wider commercial picture.
Investigations and actions can come from any of the statutory authorities, including:
Health and Safety Executive |
Police |
Fire Service |
Environment Agency |
Trading Standards |
Food Standards Agency |
Office of Fair Trading |
DTI |
Department of Transport |
Vehicle Operator Services Agency |
Environmental Health Department |
County, Borough or District Councils |
DEFRA |
