Expert evidence instructed by prosecution and defence alike. The duty is to the court.
About POCA Expert
POCA Expert exists to provide the most rigorous, independent forensic accounting expert evidence available in UK POCA and financial crime proceedings. Confiscation is one of the most financially consequential areas of criminal law. The expert evidence that informs confiscation orders must be irreproachable, whether instructed by prosecution or defence.
We operate exclusively in Proceeds of Crime Act proceedings and related financial crime matters. Our experts understand Crown Court procedure, criminal lifestyle provisions, and the analytical techniques required to establish and challenge benefit and available amount figures under cross-examination.
Independent · Prosecution & Defence
Our Independence
POCA Expert is instructed by both prosecution and defence in confiscation proceedings. Our expert opinions are formed without allegiance to any party, without prior commitment to any financial figure, and without outcome interest. Our duty is to the court, as required by the Criminal Procedure Rules and the obligations of expert witnesses in Crown Court proceedings.
Our Values
Rigour
POCA financial analysis must withstand cross-examination by specialist financial crime counsel.
Specialism
POCA is not general forensic accounting. Exclusive specialism produces better evidence.
Precision
Confiscation orders are made in precise figures. The analysis must be equally precise.
