Experts in Corporate Manslaughter Investigations

Our Business Crime & Regulation lawyers are recognised in the independent legal directories as market leaders in the field of business crime and regulation generally and have extensive experience in dealing with corporate manslaughter investigations.

The Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 came into force in April 2008.  The Act aims to better protect employees and the public from the failures of corporate management.

Prior to this legislation it was almost impossible for large organisations, with complex decision making structures, to be prosecuted successfully for manslaughter. The new provisions will make it easier for companies to be prosecuted when gross management failings result in death.

With experience in major incidents including the Hatfield rail crash and Port Talbot, our Corporate Compliance Solicitors can not only assist when an investigation has commenced, we can also undertake an internal audit to assist organisations in achieving compliance with the relevant legislation and guidelines.

By providing education and training on policies and procedures to senior management and legal, risk and compliance teams, we can help companies and their employees to achieve best practice in this complex area.
