Corruption and bribery
In recent years, Simon has been involved in complex international bribery and corruption cases connected to India, Africa, Europe, the USA and the Middle East.
He successfully took an important case to the Court of Appeal in which it was established that it was a criminal offence of bribery in the UK to corrupt the agent of a foreign principal prior to the UKBA (AIL [2016] EWCA Crim 2). In 2019 he again succeeded in the Court of Appeal in the Alstom case in which the Court dealt with the issue of corporate attribution. Between 2019 and 2022 he was instructed in a case before the Brunei High Court and the Brunei court of Appeal. He is currently instructed in a major bribery investigation in the Malawi and the UK. If you are facing a bribery investigation or case Simon has the experience and the expertise to help.
