The PCB litigation partners
Anthony Riem
Anthony Riem has been specialising in multi-jurisdictional frauds and asset recovery since 1991 and is renowned for his expertise in challenging cases involving obtaining and discharging UK and worldwide freezing and search orders. Cases have taken him from North America to a number of European countries - Greece, Gibraltar, Spain and Russia - and to Tajikistan and Dubai. Other cases have included international money laundering; bribery; carousel fraud; theft of confidential information by employees; and market manipulation under the FSA regime.
He also has significant expertise in resolving complex and high-value commercial and property disputes.
Recommended by 'The Legal 500' as a specialist fraud lawyer, Anthony's expertise in this area of the law is highly valued by professional bodies such as the Law Society; by the media - in relation to which he has appeared on TV, radio and in most of the major broadsheets; and by legal publishers. He is a member of the Law Society Working Party on Civil Fraud, the author of the chapter on this subject in 'Fraud: Law, Practice and Procedure' (LexisNexis) and a contributor to the UK Fraud Manual of the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE).
He has had a number of cases reported in 'The Times' and other law reports and has presented many papers on fraud-related issues to organisations such as the International Chamber of Commerce, the International Maritime Bureau, the Institute of Public Finance and the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy, as well as to companies, government institutions and training providers.
A graduate of Leicester University, Anthony first joined PCB Litigation in 1991 as a solicitor and became a partner of the firm in 1996. He moved to Russell Jones & Walker in 2001 - where he was described by 'The Legal 500' as one of its key partners - before returning to PCB Litigation as a partner in 2005.
