Durham University Law Lecture: Insolvency and Asset Recovery Cases (They Fought the Law . . . and the Law Won!)

This lecture explores the legal and practical aspects of investigating, tracing and recovering assets in contentious insolvency and fraud-related cases. Drawing on several cases in which he has been personally involved, David will explain how asset recovery works when the people connected to the assets do not want them to be found.

The examples discussed include high-profile matters involving fraud convictions, compulsory liquidation and the recovery of assets linked to alleged illegal investment schemes. The lecture looks at the wider legal processes behind these cases, including court proceedings, liquidations, asset recovery and the role of UK authorities in tracing and preserving assets.

It is a Law-focused event for anyone interested in insolvency, fraud, recovery proceedings and the practical realities of litigation. Attendance is free, and no registration is required.
