British victims of online financial fraud — legal assistance from Salerno

Italian legal proceedings for UK citizens affected by fraudulent investment schemes

Legal assistance for British victims of online financial fraud — Salerno


British citizens who have been defrauded by online financial schemes with connections to Salerno may pursue criminal prosecution and civil recovery in Italy, irrespective of the victim's residence in the United Kingdom.
The firm files criminal complaints, constitutes the client as parte civile, and coordinates with Italian law enforcement and, where relevant, the UK Financial Conduct Authority to ensure a comprehensive approach to the investigation and recovery.


Post-Brexit, the cooperation framework between Italian and UK law enforcement has shifted from EU instruments to bilateral arrangements and international conventions.
The firm navigates this landscape to ensure effective cross-border evidence gathering and, where Italian assets of the perpetrators are identified, seeks their precautionary seizure.


How to proceed — preliminary consultation


The first recommended step is to schedule a thirty-minute preliminary consultation, available in English, to evaluate the circumstances of the fraud, discuss the available legal avenues, and assess the feasibility of fund recovery.
The entire procedure is managed remotely.
