Our experience in this area has resulted in a number of successful challenges to decisions made by investigating authorities, prosecution bodies and the courts, including the SFO and HMRC
BCL acted for Robert Tchenguiz in his successful judicial review proceedings against the SFO which resulted in the court finding that search warrants for Mr Tchenguiz’s home and office premises were unlawful (Tchenguiz v Serious Fraud Office [2012] EWHC 2254). Successful applications for judicial review of search warrants have also been obtained by BCL in a number of other cases, including for high-profile clients such as Harry Redknapp (Redknapp v Commissioner of the City of London Police [2008] EWHC 1177 (Admin)).
