Financial Services Litigation and Disputes

Holmes have a proven track record of delivering results in finance and securities litigation, insurance litigation and banking litigation.

Typically, we advise on complex recovery disputes, priorities’ disputes and on challenges to bank security. We also investigate and prosecute claims for financial institutions against third party service providers where such providers have contributed to loan losses. We provide advice and support to regulated financial services firms, including insurers and banks, in dealing with disputes, investigations, mis-selling claims, enforcement action, litigation, crisis management and reputational issues. We represent financial institutions in litigation arising from both internal and external fraud, including the pursuit of fraudsters and the prosecution of third-party negligence claims which may have facilitated fraud. Allied to this, we represent funds, investment managers, custodians, trustees and other service providers on disputes in the investment funds sector.
