Recenzii

The book takes you through the subject in a sensible and masterly way. the content is impeccable and important.Having become a victim of crime.if you want to recover something, let alone go after that intangible thing 'justice' this book is a worthwhile read.
As a legal practitioner in the fight against fraud, I found this title a really practical and useful guide. It brings together the maze of disparate considerations that one must take into account, necessarily in short order, when responding to a fraud on behalf of one's client or employer. Framed in simple language, and easy to digest; there are plenty of great generalist tips and solid examples. The author also covers discrete, specialist aspects, for instance, cyber and criminal considerations, which even seasoned generalists will find helpful. I highly recommend the book for those professionals who find themselves advising in relation to or responding to fraud, looking for a good overview.
