SFO takes on lawyer-client privilege in fight on fraudsters

The country’s top fraud fighter is on the offensive.

David Green, QC, has already stated that the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) is at a “pivotal time” and, more significantly, that it has its “mojo” back. Now the SFO director is targeting lawyers over legal professional privilege. Companies, he says, are obstructing investigations by hiding behind the privilege of communications with their lawyers. It will not be long before he goes to court with a test case.
