Summary:
"The content in this book, focuses on just the most important points that financial crime lawyers in London, New York, Los Angeles, or Washington are likely to encounter. The rationale for writing this book was to create a resource that many may have wished existed when they began a cross border practice: a holistic, easy-to-follow explanation of the American and British statutes and procedural rules that govern the investigation and prosecution of white collar crime, along with their key differences. The author has sought to present this information objectively, and hopes that it may be equally useful to those in law enforcement and other lawyers in private practice"-- Provided by publisher.
