Millennium Chambers is pleased to report a successful outcome secured by Tamarin Hepple in POCA proceedings at Manchester Crown Court, where a reduction of almost £100,000 was secured.
Tamarin Hepple represented a defendant in POCA proceedings where the Crown initially asserted a benefit figure of over £3 million.
Following lengthy negotiations with the Crown, the financial investigator and the Defence forensic accountant, Tamarin and the incredible team at POCA Solicitors secured a reduction of almost £100,000 in the available assets figure.
The negotiations resulted in an agreement being reached and avoided the need for a contested POCA hearing. The agreed order was subsequently approved by the Court.
Tamarin was instructed by POCA Solicitors.
