Expert Legal Representation for VAT Fraud Cases Initiated by HMRC

We are regularly instructed in relation to the full range of VAT fraud cases and we have a particular specialism in defending MTIC (Missing Trader) VAT cases.

VAT cases are often complex and document intensive which means that it is imperative that the law firm instructed to defend the case has the relevant specialist knowledge and resources to ensure that no stone is left unturned in pursing the defence for the client.

The team of lawyers at KANGS have a long established track record in preparing and defending VAT fraud cases. We are already familiar with all the types of prosecutions brought by HMRC in this field and therefore we are immediately able to add considerable value to a client’s case from the outset due to our past experience.

VAT fraud prosecutions often last many years from the date of initial arrest and interview to the final hearing in Court. We are able to guide our clients through this long and complicated process by accepting instructions from the outset at the police station stage of the case and provide the client with a continuity of service right through to the final Court hearing.

We appreciate that a client facing a VAT fraud investigation may well also face ancillary issues such as being served with a Restraint Order freezing all the client’s assets including bank accounts. We can assist with dealing with the Restraint Order as we have a specialist Restraint Team at KANGS who can often get bank accounts up and running again within a short period of time by liaising and negotiating with the prosecution at an early stage.

KANGS do not offer a ‘one size fits all service’. We appreciate that each case is different and requires innovative thinking in order to secure the best possible result for our clients.

We provide an emergency police station service which is available 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year.

Our team is led by Hamraj Kang and if you wish to discuss your case with us, we provide an initial no obligation discussion at our three offices in London, Birmingham, and Manchester. Alternatively, discussions can be held through live conferencing or telephone.
