The Firm provides legal, forensic, compliance, investigative, advisory, and related professional services through its affiliated entities.

The Firm may utilise personnel, contractors, consultants, lawyers, analysts, investigators, and other professionals across its affiliated entities in the delivery of services. The client acknowledges and agrees that work may be undertaken collaboratively across multiple jurisdictions and affiliated entities where the Firm considers this necessary or appropriate for the performance of the engagement.

Any such engagement may be made directly by the Firm or, where appropriate, by the client.

Nothing in this section shall limit any confidentiality, privacy, or data protection obligations expressly undertaken by the Firm under applicable law or under a separate written agreement with a client.
Any reports, findings, opinions, assessments, analyses, forensic reports, investigative results, compliance reviews, or other deliverables provided by the Firm are prepared solely for the use of the client identified in the applicable engagement documentation and for the specific purpose for which they were produced.
Unless expressly agreed in writing, no report or deliverable may be relied upon by any third party, and the Firm accepts no responsibility or liability to any person other than the client for whom the work was performed.

The success of any matter may depend upon factors beyond the Firm’s control, including the actions of third parties, counterparties, financial institutions, exchanges, regulators, law enforcement agencies, courts, service providers, and other external parties.
All fees, payment terms, and service charges are governed by the applicable engagement agreement, quotation, invoice, statement of work, or other written agreement entered into between the Firm and the Client.
Fees are charged for the time, expertise, resources, analysis, investigations, professional services, and operational costs incurred by the Firm and are not contingent upon the achievement of any specific outcome, recovery, result, regulatory action, legal remedy, or other objective unless expressly agreed in writing.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all fees are payable in advance and must be received in cleared funds before services commence.
All fees paid to the Firm are non-refundable once services have commenced, except where required by applicable law or expressly agreed in writing by the Firm.
Where services are cancelled by the Client before material work has commenced, the Firm reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to retain or charge a cancellation fee of up to 20% of the agreed service fee to cover administrative, compliance, onboarding, and operational costs incurred in connection with the engagement.
The Client shall remain liable for all fees, costs, expenses, disbursements, taxes, and charges incurred up to the date of cancellation, suspension, or termination of the engagement.
Any unpaid invoice, agreed fee, or other amount due to the Firm shall constitute a valid, due, and enforceable debt. The Firm reserves the right to suspend services, withhold deliverables, terminate engagements, refer outstanding balances to debt recovery agents, or pursue any other lawful remedy available for the recovery of unpaid amounts.
The Client shall be responsible for any reasonable costs incurred by the Firm in recovering overdue sums, including administrative costs, collection costs, legal costs, and enforcement expenses where permitted by applicable law.

Where a matter remains inactive for an extended period, the Firm may suspend work, archive records, close the file, or terminate the engagement without further obligation to continue providing services.
Any reactivation of an inactive matter shall be at the Firm’s discretion and may be subject to additional fees, updated engagement terms, regulatory requirements, compliance checks, or operational considerations.
The closure of an inactive matter shall not affect any fees already earned or amounts otherwise due to the Firm.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the aggregate liability of the Firm, its affiliated entities, directors, officers, employees, contractors, consultants, agents, and representatives arising out of or relating to the website, these Terms, or any services provided shall not exceed the total amount of fees actually paid by the client to the Firm in respect of the relevant engagement.
Under no circumstances shall the Firm be liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or economic losses, including loss of profits, loss of business opportunity, loss of goodwill, loss of data, loss of anticipated savings, or similar losses, whether arising in contract, tort, negligence, statute, or otherwise.
Nothing in these Terms shall exclude or limit liability to the extent that such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by applicable law.
The Firm operates internationally through affiliated entities and may provide services across multiple jurisdictions.
The client acknowledges that legal, regulatory, compliance, investigative, and enforcement frameworks differ between jurisdictions and that the availability, scope, timing, and effectiveness of any action may vary depending on applicable local laws and regulatory requirements.
Nothing in these Terms shall be interpreted as a representation that any right, remedy, recovery action, regulatory measure, enforcement mechanism, or legal process will be available or effective in any particular jurisdiction.
No failure, delay, or omission by the Firm in exercising any right, power, remedy, or privilege under these Terms shall constitute a waiver of that right, power, remedy, or privilege.
Any waiver by the Firm shall be effective only if made expressly in writing and shall apply solely to the specific circumstance for which it is given.
A waiver of any breach shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent or continuing breach.
These Terms, together with any engagement agreement, statement of work, quotation, invoice, privacy policy, or other written agreement issued by the Firm, constitute the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter addressed herein and supersede all prior discussions, communications, understandings, representations, and agreements relating to that subject matter.
In the event of any conflict between these Terms and a separately executed written agreement with the Firm, the terms of the written agreement shall prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.
