Greenberg Traurig, LLP

Greenberg Traurig, LLP‘s civil fraud practice has ’some of the biggest names in civil fraud and the expertise to take on the largest cases’. The team routinely represents corporations and individuals from the retail, finance, investment, energy and real estate sectors in cross-border civil fraud matters. It is particularly experienced in multi-jurisdictional cases, and search and seizure orders; clients further benefit from the London group’s leveraging of litigation teams from the firm’s international network of 47 offices. The London civil fraud and business disputes practice is co-chaired by Kathryn Garbett, who is ‘one of the most experienced civil fraud litigators around’, and Claire Broadbelt, who acts for both claimants and defendants in high-value civil fraud cases before the English High Court. The second line of experienced practitioners includes Annabel Thomas, whose caseload frequently involves multiple jurisdictions and interim relief applications; longstanding civil fraud expert Martin Shobbrook, who has considerable experience in multi-jurisdictional asset tracing; Hannah Blom-Cooper, who heads the London contentious insolvency practice; and Elizabeth Fox, who handles matters involving fraud and misconduct allegations. Other names to note are Mehmet Karagoz, Katharine Bond, Bethany Histed and Stephanie Silverston. ’First-rate litigator’ Masoud Zabeti was promoted to shareholder in early 2024.
