COMPLEX CRIMINAL DEFENCE | ASSET RECOVERY | STRATEGIC TRADE ACT & INTERNATIONAL COMPLIANCE ADVISORY

Serious Cases Require More Than Effort.
They Require Judgment Exercised Strategically.

A Note from the Founder

I founded Scivetti & Associates after many years practising law across jurisdictions and legal systems, and after seeing first-hand how profoundly the quality of representation can shape outcomes. Not only legally, but personally.

Much of my work involves complex international matters, financial investigations, cross-border disputes, and situations where governments, corporations and individuals find themselves navigating difficult legal terrain. Through that work, I became increasingly convinced that the most difficult cases do not benefit from scale, noise or excess process. They benefit from experience, judgment, and the ability to see the whole picture from a legal, financial, human and strategic perspective.

This firm was built on that belief.

I chose to keep the practice intentionally boutique so that every matter receives senior-level attention, careful thought, and the time it deserves. I remain personally involved in each case, not as a matter of branding, but because responsibility and trust sit at the heart of how I practice law.

Many of the clients who come to us are navigating moments of intense pressure, from criminal allegations, asset exposure, reputational risk, or cross-border uncertainty. In those moments, what they need most is not rhetoric, but clarity; not aggression, but strategy; and not promises, but judgment grounded in experience.

My role, and the role of this firm, is to guide clients through that terrain calmly and rigorously. To defend where defence is required. To challenge where challenge is necessary, and to resolve matters intelligently where resolution best serves the client's interests.

Scivetti & Associates reflects how I believe law should be practised:

with independence, discretion, and respect for the seriousness of what is at stake.

Aggregate Value of Strategic Negotiated Settlements
Across multiple matters involving cross-border investigations and regulatory resolutions

Through negotiated settlements, structured resolutions and strategic engagement with
regulatory and enforcement authorities, Scivetti & Associates, led by Tania Scivetti, has facilitated the resolution of complex matters involving approximately RM1.64 billion in negotiated settlements.

These engagements have involved coordination and discussions with domestic and
international enforcement and regulatory authorities across multiple jurisdictions.

The matters arise from complex financial and regulatory situations involving cross-border transactions, corporate investigations and asset recovery issues. They form part of the firm’s broader work in international financial investigations, regulatory matters, asset tracing and negotiated resolutions involving government and institutional stakeholders.

The firm’s approach focuses on structured negotiation, rigorous legal analysis and strategic engagement with enforcement authorities, enabling complex matters to be resolved constructively without the need for prolonged and disruptive litigation.

This approach provides individuals and businesses facing serious investigations with a
constructive pathway to bring difficult matters to an orderly conclusion, allowing them to achieve clarity, finality and the ability to move forward with certainty.

Scivetti & Associates continues to advise clients in ongoing negotiations and investigations involving significant financial exposure across multiple jurisdictions.

Several matters remain ongoing and further settlements are currently under discussion as negotiations continue.
