Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA)
MNSK is instructed by defendants convicted of a crime and who have been served with a confiscation order under POCA.
MNSK will review the report prepared by the Crown Prosecution Service, which usually states that the defendant has benefited from a Criminal Lifestyle. The Crown Prosecution Service will look to recover the alleged benefit from the defendant's known assets.
MNSK will vigorously examine the Prosecution's report and identify any legitimate income that has been incorrectly included. Defendants are often left astounded at the level of money claimed. We will review the evidence that is provided concerning the Defendant's assets and make the necessary adjustments.
Our reports include a detailed examination of the Defendant’s financial records in a clear and precise format. MNSK’s involvement almost inevitably results in a substantial reduction in the original amount alleged by the Crown Prosecution Service.
