High Profile Prosecution Lawyer
Defending a civil or commercial case is a serious responsibility to always undertake with the assistance of an experienced prosecution lawyer. A comprehensive knowledge by the prosecution lawyer of the relevant law, case law and court rules is required to formulate effective motions, responses and the evaluation of evidence. Choosing the right barrister is crucial for a successful outcome in the High Court, the Appeal- and Supreme Court.
Defence and Prosecution Lawyer in Auckland
Rob Latton Barrister is a respected law practice in Auckland and specialises in defence of corporations, businesses, trusts and individuals in regulatory and competition prosecutions by the Crown or civil actions.
He has successfully represented his clients on regulatory investigations, civil breach actions and other prosecutions, generating an admirable track record of success. Regulatory prosecutions are complex actions involving arcane regulations and laws that can only be understood within the framework of the relevant industry, be it taxation, mining, manufacturing or even vehicle sales. Often non-legal issues are also involved, which must be separated from the point of dispute with the regulatory body conducting the prosecution.
Rob cut his teeth as a lawyer on competition and fair-trading litigation, working both sides of the bench. Defending a fair-trading prosecution is often more about negotiations than presenting facts, evidence, and arguments. Acts of deliberate anti-competition must be distinguished from "ignorance of the law" cases, even though the latter is not a defensible position. Rob will determine a beneficial route during competition and fair-trading litigation.
