“In high-stakes investigations, silence isn’t always safe, but carelessness is always dangerous"


When regulators turn up, the stakes are rarely just legal. Brandyn advises individuals, directors, and businesses facing investigation or enforcement action by the Serious Fraud Office (SFO), WorkSafe, the Financial Markets Authority (FMA), and other agencies. He acts in matters involving both civil and criminal exposure, where reputational, financial, and legal risk must be carefully managed from the outset.

Brandyn is instructed in cases where regulatory exposure sits alongside criminal allegations, civil proceedings, or media scrutiny. He helps clients stay one step ahead and avoid making a difficult situation worse.

In every case, Brandyn’s focus is on protecting the client’s position, legally, commercially, and reputationally, while keeping the noise to a minimum.

"Resolve your problem, before it becomes a problem"

Responding to investigations

What happens in the early stages can set the tone for the entire matter. Helping clients deal with information requests, prepare for interviews, and manage privilege and self-incrimination issues, without making a difficult situation worse.

Acting in proceedings

Whether it’s prosecution or civil enforcement, Brandyn represents clients in proceedings brought by regulators, including WorkSafe, the FMA, and the SFO. He knows how these agencies operate, and how to respond in a way that protects your position.

Getting ahead of problems

The best time to take advice is before it becomes a headline or a prosecution. Brandyn works with clients to run internal investigations, address compliance risks, and assess where enforcement might come from, and how to get ahead of it.

Managing reputational fallout

Regulatory problems don’t just play out in court. Brandyn helps clients navigate sensitive internal communications, deal with media pressure, and seek name suppression or non-publication orders where appropriate.
