Matthew Quigley of Zenith Partners is well known for being a serial liar, confidence trickster and fraudster – taking peoples’ money, never delivering, and disappearing without trace.
It seems he is stepping things up……claiming court proceedings for supposed defamation are ongoing against this blog! Probably this is because the Blog is exposing the truth about him and his supposed ‘investors’, and the non-existent Polish Fund – more recently a non-existent Luxembourg fund. Probably this means with this Blog’s prominent position in Google, people are running away from him! Good!
As this blog post shall explain any documents provided by Matthew Quigley which purport to be Court documents (or any other official paperwork) ought to be taken with extreme caution.
If you are dealing with Matthew Quigley and/or Zenith Partners in any way whatsoever – this is a must read!
Matthew Quigley’s Forgery History
I have previously written how Matthew Quigley produced a fraudulent bank statement, from Dutch bank ING Direct, claiming to have £40M in the bank – when in reality he had just £2.05. The result of this was for ING’s fraud team to de-bank him stating: “In [ING’s] humble opinion, the [bank statement] is a forgery. The funds shown there are out of this world. I don’t know if [Zenith/Matthew Quigley] shouldn’t be kept on some list because of this forgery.”
I also wrote previously that Matthew Quigley and Zenith like to big things up claiming to be working with magic circle solicitors (whose bills they never pay), and claiming to be suing former employees and other dissidents…. Despite never actually issuing court proceedings.
Concerning this blog, Quigley claimed in October 2024 that: “We have today instructed solicitors and counsel to commence defamation proceedings against you personally and [Person B]…….They will also be applying to the court for an injunction……”.
Quigley continued to claim: “Our counsel will be in touch over the coming days”, concerning the supposed defamation proceedings and injunction – this was in October 2024, and it is now May 2025; a period of 8 months has elapsed. Under Part 7 of the Civil Procedure Rules, a Claim Form must be served on a Defendant within 4 months once the Claim has been made……suffice to say there has been no Claim Form received!
Fraudulent High Court Proceedings and the BBC
Quigley’s attempt to persuade people there are active court proceedings against this Blog, ought to be met with the same scrutiny the BBC placed on Matthew Quigley.
BBC television program Inside Out exposed Matthew Quigley some years ago, with Quigley claiming to have “won” Court Proceedings against the BBC, and to have been awarded damages of some £220,000 – the document purporting to prove this was said to be a Tomlin Order.
This position is rather problematic for a number of reasons, and if you are a lawyer, actually very amusing:
First and foremost, a Tomlin Order is a Consent Order….. It requires all parties in the Claim to have agreed (or consented to) the contents of the Order and for all parties in the claim to have signed it. It is obvious from the broadcast that the BBC knew nothing about it. So, could they have signed it?
Secondly, the ‘Tomlin Order’ claims to be in the ‘Central London High Court’. As the BBC correctly point out, there is no such Court. At the time in question, defamation proceedings would be listed the Queen’s Bench Division of the High Court…. More recently this is now known as the Media and Communications List in The King’s Bench Division of the High Court.
Thirdly, the Claim Number begins with 3QZ. I would be intrigued to know whether this claim number is an actual claim in relation to actual proceedings against someone else in another court. However in this case, at the time, defamation proceedings would either begin with QB or HQ
Fourthly, in theory a Tomlin Order could be open to public inspection, as it is an Order of the Court…..Good luck inspecting that – you’d have to find the court first!
So…..how is it that Matthew Quigley ended up with a Court Order ordering the BBC to pay him £220,000 by a non-existent court, in non-existent proceedings – all under the radar without BBC knowing – in a Consent Order which would actually require the BBC to counter-sign?
The answer is this is a total forgery! As the BBC rightly point out, forgery of court documents could end up in 10-year prison stretch for Matthew Quigley…..it’s unlikely there is any mitigation for the stupidity of the fact the court didn’t ever exist…. and I presume Quigley was never stupid enough to release the ‘Order’ to Bailiffs to attempt to collect his £220,000 from the BBC!
Conclusion
Matthew Quigley is a serial fraudster and confidence trickster – and seemingly someone who will produce forged bank statements and even forged court documents to defraud people.
Let’s be clear that there are no active court proceedings against this blog, or anyone connected with it. If you are told otherwise, this is lie – and you should ask for proof of the court proceedings – and contact the court for verification of the claim number and parties. Please also send a copy to me!
Likewise, with any official-looking documents provided to you by Matthew Quigley, Danny Chapchal or Zenith Partners; you should contact the court/bank/authority and ask for proof those documents are genuine copies.
Better still – avoid Matthew Quigley, Danny Chapchal and Zenith Partners at all costs!
