How Holborn Adams' War Chest Of Private Prosecutors Changed The ‘game’ On Defending Clients On Serious Criminal Investigation.
At Holborn Adams, we recognise that some firms will have former CPS lawyers as a ‘sales pitch’ to sign up clients to pre charge services.
Unfortunately, CPS lawyers have always worked within the government funded sector and their eye for private defence practice is not the same as strict private criminal defence practice for many years. There is no substitute.
At Holborn Adams, we are instructed worldwide to privately prosecute individuals and companies.

A substantial and lengthy investigation into a multi-million pound VAT fraud case was discontinued against Holborn Adams’ client. Following years of investigation, the CPS and HMRC accepted Holborn Adams’ detailed pre-charge representations and discontinued their investigation. As a result, the client no longer faced criminal prosecution or Confiscation proceedings.
An investigation that commenced in 2011 was brought to a successful conclusion by the Holborn Adams’ Serious Fraud Team. Extensive pre-charge representations at interview and powerful client statements resulted in an extensive list of charges being ‘dropped’ against our client by HMRC investigators. These included conspiracy to cheat the public revenue, conspiracy to undertake fraudulent activity, and making and supplying articles for use in fraud and money laundering. The value of the alleged crimes was estimated at £5,000,000.
