What You're Being Accused Of

Forgery involves making, copying, or using a 'false instrument' with the intent to deceive another. This can include documents, signatures, banknotes, or other valuable objects. Documents subject to forgery include passports, driving licenses, ID cards, contracts, and legal certificates.

Counterfeiting, on the other hand, involves creating replicas of an item with the intent of passing them off as genuine. This often includes items produced en masse, such as money, electronics, designer goods, cigarettes, toys and music.

Penalties

If found guilty of counterfeiting or forgery, you may be charged with fraud, which is taken extremely seriously under UK law. Penalties can include a custodial sentence of up to 10 years, as well as substantial fines. Moreover, such offences can have severe repercussions on your reputation, business, and livelihood.

Our experienced team is committed to building a robust defence on your behalf, ensuring that you receive fair treatment and the best possible outcome.
