We have defended many individuals and companies accused of trading standards breaches and many other regulatory offences. We have a team of lawyers with considerable expertise in trading standards and we have dealt with some of the largest cases that have been brought against people in the Crown Court.
Trading standards prosecutions can be brought by the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) together with the local authority regulatory body for trading standards. They can also be brought by the Food Standards Agency. These bodies can investigate and prosecute in number of areas and this can affect wholesale or retail businesses. The potential offences include dealing in counterfeit goods, breaching copyright and breaching trademark regulations.

We have a team of lawyers with specialist regulatory experience who can advise you and assist you in defending these prosecutions.
