In today’s globalised world, criminal investigations and prosecutions increasingly extend beyond national borders. Allegations of international crime can involve complex legal frameworks, multiple jurisdictions, and serious implications for individuals and organisations alike. At Axiom Legal Advisors, we provide trusted legal representation in cases involving cross border crime, international investigations, and foreign extradition.
International crimes can include offences such as money laundering, drug trafficking, people smuggling, cybercrime, terrorism, fraud, sanctions breaches, and arms trading. These investigations may be led by UK authorities such as the National Crime Agency (NCA), the Serious Fraud Office (SFO), HMRC, or the Metropolitan Police, often in collaboration with international bodies like Interpol, Europol, or the FBI.
Being investigated or charged with an international offence can be overwhelming, especially when dealing with unfamiliar legal systems or extradition proceedings. Our solicitors are experienced in handling matters involving Mutual Legal Assistance (MLA), European Arrest Warrants, Interpol Red Notices, and requests for extradition under bilateral treaties.
These cases often involve high-stakes asset freezes, travel bans, or pre-charge detention. Whether you're a UK national accused of committing a crime overseas or a foreign national facing allegations in the UK, we will guide you through each stage of the legal process with clear, practical advice and strategic defence planning.
At Axiom Legal Advisors, we work closely with international law firms, legal attachés, and expert barristers to coordinate your defence and ensure your rights are protected across jurisdictions. Where necessary, we will challenge extradition, oppose unlawful detention, and fight to exclude improperly obtained or politically motivated evidence.
If you are involved in an international investigation or face proceedings in more than one country, time is critical. Early legal intervention can often reduce the risk of extradition or prosecution and help safeguard your freedom and assets.
