Leading bribery and corruption barrister and QC

As one of the UK’s leading Bribery and Corruption barristers, Bill Clegg has acted for clients and lectured extensively on the new Bribery Act both in this country and abroad. This includes before Russian lawyers at the British Embassy in Moscow at the invitation of the British Council.

He has advised multi national corporations on their compliance codes and has advised in both hypothetical and real individual cases where payments have been sought.

Bill has acted in or advised most of the major corruption investigations in recent years. In many cases the corporations have not been the subject of criminal proceedings and the investigation has not been made public so it is not possible to mention the names of Bill’s clients for that reason. However those cases where Bill

acted or advised as a leading bribery and corruption barrister, and where the investigation has come into the public domain include:

Bill also acted in the Haliburton corruption extradition proceedings for an English solicitor, Jeffrey Tesler, who was accused of complicity in the corruption of officials in Nigeria when the Boney Island Gas Plant was constructed.

In addition to corporate clients, Bill has acted as a leading bribery and corruption barrister for many individuals who have been accused of either offering or accepting bribes both in the commercial and the political world.
