White Collar Crime

Trident Law’s White-Collar Crime Team is different. Our white-collar criminal lawyers are first and foremost criminal defence specialists.

To put it simply, we are lawyers with significant game time in defending subjects at trials. As seasoned trial lawyers, you have the assurance that our advice will always be premised on our years of experience in the real world of criminal litigation.

With one of the largest criminal defence teams in Singapore, we have the capacity to be mobilised to crises situations in a matter of hours. On the capability front, we stand out for having lawyers with finance and tech expertise.

For close to a decade, Trident Law has been regularly instructed by local and overseas based clients to act in matters involving bribery and corruption allegations including those involving foreign public officials, money laundering, tax frauds, insider trading and market manipulations. We have been actively involved in cases originating in Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia and India.

When instructed on a white-collar criminal defence matter, we devote substantial resources to ascertain the facts (through internal investigations, reviews and analyses of large volumes of documents/data and evidence preservation) and to thereafter provide advice to our clients as early as possible during investigations by the authorities. We also engage the authorities at an early stage to set out our clients’ positions to prevent charges from being preferred.

Our greatest victories have been such cases where investigations do not lead to charges being laid against our clients, thereby averting any reputational damage to our clients.
