QGLaw, part of the QuestGates group, has launched a dedicated Counter Fraud team, further expanding its specialist legal and investigation services.
Growing demand from our existing clients within the QuestGates group, combined with increased interest following the acquisitions of Toppings Forensic Accountants and Brownsword, has significantly accelerated the growth of this specialist area.
The QGLaw team will work alongside and supplement QuestGates’ existing fraud capability where required.
The newly-formed Counter Fraud team has already attracted 15 experienced professionals from within the industry, enhancing QGLaw’s objective to reinvigorate and redefine the legal insurance market with a fresh, innovative approach.
