“You asked, so we delivered. We are proud to introduce Tim Thomas as our Head of Regulatory, White-Collar Crime & Investigations”
When Berkeley Rowe was established at its core were commitments to providing outstanding representation and being responsive to our clients’ needs.
Tim has specialised in white collar financial crime and regulatory work for fifteen years. He has advised individuals and corporates under investigation (both pre and post charge) by the SFO, FCA, ICO, NCA,HMRC, CoLP and US DoJ (Southern District of New York).
Tim can assist clients in relation to all areas of asset forfeiture (both criminal and civil) including unexplained wealth orders, account freezing orders, cash forfeiture, restraint, as well as other general crime matters.
Tim spent his early years at the bar prosecuting and defending in general criminal matters before specialising in the defence of complex financial crime cases and as a result being ranked in Chambers & Partners : ‘…brilliant at investigatory fraud…’ (2016).
Tim then gained substantial UK law enforcement experience when he was seconded to the Regulatory Investigations department in the Enforcement Division of the FCA. His regulatory work there included Paul Flowers, Standard Chartered and HBOS. Tim was then seconded (and subsequently employed) by the Criminal Prosecutions Team in Enforcement where he advised on multiple insider dealing, market abuse and breach of FSMA investigations.
Prior to joining Berkeley Rowe he was a partner at a well established London firm.
