Edmonds Marshall McMahon—Satnam Tumani

Ex-SFO head of bribery & corruption joins firm as partner

Specialist private prosecution law firm Edmonds Marshall McMahon has announced the appointment of Satnam Tumani as a partner.

Satnam, a leading figure in the field of white-collar crime, has more than 30 years’ experience in fraud and corruption prosecutions, internal and external investigations for public companies, regulatory authority matters, public inquiries, and high-level defence strategies for senior executives.

During his 18 years at the Serious Fraud Office, Satnam held various roles, including head of bribery and corruption. More recently, he spent almost 12 years as a senior partner at a large international law firm, setting up and leading its UK white-collar crime practice.

He has also held numerous thought-leadership roles—for example, as a member of the Law Society’s money laundering taskforce, the City of London Law Society’s corporate crime & corruption committee, and the editorial boards of both PLC and LexisNexis.

‘We are delighted to welcome Satnam to our team,’ says Tamlyn Edmonds, founding partner of Edmonds Marshall McMahon. ‘His exceptional track record, coupled with his innovative approach to legal challenges, will enhance our firm’s capabilities and reinforce our position as pioneers in private prosecution and complex legal cases.’
