Practice Areas
Anti-Money Laundering
Lebanon's anti-money laundering framework reaches individuals, companies and the institutions that serve them. We act for clients whose accounts, transfers or counterparties have come under scrutiny, and for entities responding to compliance findings.
We act in anti-money laundering matters before the relevant judicial authorities, advising clients on the legal and procedural issues arising from financial transactions, investigations and criminal proceedings. Our practice includes the analysis of financial evidence and the development of case-specific defence strategies.
