How can you help with a frozen business account?

We review the bank’s reasons, check compliance with regulatory obligations, and pursue urgent remediation or challenge where appropriate. Early intervention preserves cashflow and protects operations while we negotiate or escalate the dispute.

What should I do if a lender enforces security?

Assess statutory and contractual rights immediately, seek interim relief where available, and explore restructuring or negotiated solutions. Our banking law solicitors balance enforcement defence with commercially realistic outcomes.

Can you help negotiate finance and lending terms?

Yes — we review facilities, guarantees and security, highlight key risks, and renegotiate terms to protect borrower or lender interests. Clients receive clear commercial advice tailored to London market practice.

Do you act for individuals with fraud or unauthorised transactions?

We advise on suspected fraud, unauthorised debits and chargeback options, coordinate with banks and investigators, and pursue recovery or compensation where the bank has failed in its duties.

How do you handle FCA or regulatory issues?

We analyse regulatory obligations, prepare responses to enquiries, and advise on remediation steps. Our regulatory work is practical and focused on limiting exposure while achieving compliance.

Can you support litigation funding or third-party funding?

Where appropriate, we assess litigation funding options and work with established funding partners to structure arrangements that manage cost risk and enable access to dispute resolution for meritorious claims.

What help is available for cross-border finance matters?

We coordinate multi-jurisdictional teams, engage local counsel, and align strategy across forums. Our cross-border capability ensures coherence in documentation, enforcement and regulatory compliance.

How quickly can you act on urgent banking matters?

We offer rapid case assessment and senior contact for urgent issues such as account freezes or enforcement. Timely action is prioritised to protect funds and preserve legal options in London’s fast-moving financial environment.

When should I involve a banking and finance barrister in London?

Where issues require specialist advocacy or clarity on complex contracts, engaging a banking and finance barrister in London can clarify points for the court or arbitrator. Aldwych Legal coordinates solicitor–barrister teams for seamless, authoritative submissions.

How can security interests and guarantees be enforced in London?

What regulations must London borrowers and banks consider?

How does a senior-led team help my London finance case?

Aldwych Legal deploys senior solicitors who coordinate bankers, lawyers, and barristers to map strategy from day one. In London’s complex regulatory and market environment, senior oversight improves risk assessment, negotiation leverage, and outcomes in high-stakes disputes.

How are banking finance disputes handled in courts vs arbitration?

London disputes often begin in the High Court or Commercial Court, with options for urgent relief. Aldwych Legal also coordinates arbitration or LCIA proceedings where appropriate, balancing speed, confidentiality, and enforceability for clients in the capital.

Should a website visitor seek to ascertain the nature of our establishment, Aldwych Legal, it becomes essential for us to clarify the intricacies of our professional classification. Aldwych Legal is a legal consultancy, not a traditional solicitors’ firm. As an international legal consultancy and legal support organisation, we position ourselves distinctly apart from the conventional categorisation of a regulated solicitors’ practice. It is of paramount importance to transparently disclose that Aldwych Legal’s operational framework and support services remain independent of regulatory supervision by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) and the Bar Standards Board (BSB). Our multidisciplinary team consists of legally trained professionals who operate within the framework of unreserved legal activities permitted under the Legal Services Act 2007. Where a matter requires a reserved legal activity, we collaborate with, and where appropriate introduce clients to, carefully selected external solicitors and barristers from our professional network. These regulated practitioners operate under their own authorisation and regulatory obligations. Aldwych Legal continues to deliver high-calibre legal support, strategic advisory work, and comprehensive case preparation with the same diligence and rigour expected of any premier legal service provider, while maintaining full transparency regarding our regulatory status. For full details of our regulatory status and operating framework, please refer to our Legal Services Act 2007 page and our Terms & Conditions.
