Fraud Recovery

When fraud is discovered, speed is critical. We act swiftly to identify, freeze, and recover misappropriated assets through the Hong Kong courts, working to maximise recovery for our clients.

Emergency Relief & Asset Freezing

In fraud cases, assets can be dissipated rapidly. We apply for urgent interim relief including Mareva injunctions to freeze assets, proprietary injunctions, disclosure orders (including Norwich Pharmacal orders and Bankers Trust orders), and worldwide freezing orders where assets have been moved offshore. Our approach focuses on acting quickly and decisively to preserve as much value as possible while the substantive claim proceeds.

Tracing & Cross-Border Recovery

Fraud frequently crosses borders. We coordinate with lawyers in relevant jurisdictions to trace and recover assets, working through Hong Kong's well-established framework for international judicial cooperation. This includes registering Hong Kong judgments abroad, applying for letters rogatory, and coordinating parallel proceedings where assets are held in multiple jurisdictions.

If you suspect fraud or need to recover misappropriated assets, contact us immediately for urgent advice.
