Corporate raids usually involve a campaign of measures designed to increase financial and psychological pressure upon victims and to influence an individual to settle on unfavourable terms, forcing them to transfer assets at an undervalue.
The persecutor(s) usually employ a series of tactics to achieve their objectives, these measures include trumped up criminal charges, adverse press campaigns, harassment of former employees, family members or associates, extradition requests, civil claims, civil freezing orders and Interpol red notices.
Corporate raiding can be a form of state sponsored persecution which has become increasingly prevalent around the world. It is the primary method by which commercial rivals, with close connections to a state, target independent business-people and seize their assets and prevent them from conducting business in the future.
We are aware and empathise with how this kind of coordinated campaign can be extremely detrimental for our clients, and often damaging both to their businesses and their personal lives. This is disruptive to individuals where the persecution is sophisticated, and not in the form that can be easily proven or be defended against without fear of reprisal.

Political asylum claims are core to our strategy, as Asylum provides the strongest protection to our clients. Asylum protects extradition and is conducted within the realms of confidential proceedings. The result is a grant of a United Nations travel document, which assists in remedying some of the reputation damage caused to the victim of the raid.
