The role played by legal professionals in the laundering of
criminal proceeds generated by others has become a priority concern
for authorities at national and international levels. This
ground-breaking book presents an in-depth empirical analysis of the
nature of lawyers' involvement in the facilitation of money
laundering and its control through criminal justice and regulatory
mechanisms. It is based on qualitative research combining analysis
of cases of lawyers convicted of money laundering offences with
interviews with criminal justice practitioners, members of
professional and regulatory bodies and practising solicitors, and
analysis of relevant national and international legislative and
regulatory frameworks. The book demonstrates the complex and
diverse nature of lawyers' involvement in laundering activity, and
shows that their actions and the decisions they take must be
understood in relation to the specific situational contexts in
which they occur. It provides significant new insights into the
criminal justice and regulatory response to professional
facilitation of money laundering in the UK, raising questions about
the effectiveness and appropriateness of the response and the
challenges involved. The book develops a framework for future
research and analysis in this area, and proposes a range of
potential strategies for controlling the facilitation of money
laundering. Lawyers and the Proceeds of Crime is essential reading
for those researching money laundering, white-collar crime or
organised crime, and for practitioners and policy makers concerned
with preventing the facilitation of money laundering.
