FCA contentious financial regulation lawyer joins the team as of counsel
Corker Binning has strengthened its regulatory and criminal defence offering with the appointment of Priya Dave as of counsel. She joins the firm from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), where she spent a decade as a contentious regulation lawyer advising on and litigating complex enforcement and supervisory cases.
During her time at the FCA, Dave acted in high-profile domestic and international matters before the Regulatory Decisions Committee, the Upper Tribunal, the High Court and the Court of Appeal. She also advised on the Senior Managers and Certification Regime, conduct rules and the Market Abuse Regulation, bringing deep insight into the regulatory framework governing financial services.
Before her regulatory career, Dave spent eight years as a barrister, both prosecuting and defending across the full spectrum of criminal cases, including a secondment to the Serious Fraud Office to work on the Rolls-Royce investigation.
Partner Claire Cross said she was ‘delighted to welcome Priya to Corker Binning’, adding that her experience and insight from the FCA ‘will be a tremendous addition to our highly respected regulatory team’. Dave said she was ‘excited to bring my regulatory expertise as well as my prior experience as a criminal barrister to bear in supporting clients’, and ‘very much looking forward to working alongside such a talented team’.
