Forensic asset recovery
We reconstruct the path stolen funds actually took — across chains, correspondent banks, and shell entities — then build the evidence package that makes recovery possible.

What we do
Recovery rarely turns on a single technique. We run tracing, evidence assembly, and legal escalation as one workstream so nothing stalls waiting on a handoff. Most matters use three or four of these.
Transaction-graph analysis to the first regulated off-ramp that holds identity data — because that is where legal process can actually bite.
Fake platforms leave a consistent footprint. We map it to establish who actually controlled the funds — a different question from who appeared to.
Bank-rail recovery is dominated by timing. A recall request that arrives incomplete usually arrives too late.
A trace that ends at a company name is not finished. We establish beneficial ownership and identify assets a court could realistically reach.
An investigation only matters if a third party will act on it. That standard is slower than a screenshot dump — and it is the difference between a report a bank files and one a bank acts on.
We are investigators, not lawyers. What we do is make counsel's job tractable: arrive with the tracing done and the evidence in a form the court will accept.
We do not take possession of client funds, offer investment advice, or represent clients in legal proceedings. Any engagement that would require those activities is referred to an appropriately licensed professional.
How it runs
Six stages. You can stop after any of them, and after stage two you will know enough to decide whether continuing is rational.
Transaction hashes or wire references, the correspondence, and the timeline. Nothing formatted, nothing prepared — raw is fine and usually better.
Within a couple of business days you get a written read: is there a traceable path, where is it likely to end, and is pursuing it proportionate to what was lost.
If it makes sense to proceed, you get a fixed scope and fixed price in writing. You decide knowing the cost and what success would even look like.
Funds are followed hop by hop. Attribution is recorded with its confidence level. Where the trail goes cold, that is documented rather than papered over.
Findings become an exhibit-ready report — methodology, sources, narrative — suitable for a bank fraud team, a regulator, law enforcement, or a court.
We deliver it to whoever can act, and support counsel or investigators who take it forward. You keep the report regardless of outcome.

Typical timeline
Illustrative ranges for layout only. Real timelines vary enormously by jurisdiction and case complexity — replace with your own before publishing.
Why clients stay
Most funds that vanish do not come back in full. Anyone who tells you otherwise before looking at your file is selling something. Our value is an honest read of your odds, and rigorous work when those odds are real.

In their words
A few words from people we have worked with.
“The first honest conversation I had after losing the money. They explained what was recoverable and what wasn't, and didn't oversell either.”
“The tracing report was detailed enough that our bank's fraud team actually engaged with it instead of sending a form letter.”
“They told me at intake that a full recovery was unlikely. I appreciated knowing that before I spent anything.”
Insights
Including us. Recovery fraud is its own industry and its primary target is people who have already lost money once.
Upfront release fees, guaranteed outcomes, and unsolicited contact are the three reliable signals. The full checklist, and what to do if you have already paid one.
The window is short and the paperwork is specific. What your bank needs from you, and why a recall request that arrives incomplete usually fails.
Chain analysis after obfuscation: what remains statistically recoverable, which assumptions carry the weight, and where confidence genuinely collapses.
How the intrusion usually happens, why the fraudulent invoice looks correct, and the narrow set of controls that actually prevent it.
Where the defendant is, where the assets are, and where a judgment can be enforced are three different places. Only the third one really matters.
Why contingency pricing quietly distorts case selection, and what a fairer fee structure for victims looks like.
Common questions
Including the ones that are bad for business. If a question you have is not here, ask it directly.
No, and no legitimate firm can. Recovery depends on where the funds ended up, whether that jurisdiction cooperates, whether the receiving party still holds anything, and how much time has passed. Any firm that guarantees an outcome before reviewing your file is telling you what you want to hear, which is the oldest technique in this industry.
The initial assessment is free. If we take the matter on, tracing work is a fixed fee quoted to you in writing before anything begins — no open-ended retainers and no percentage of any funds recovered. You approve the scope and the number before we start. We publish this plainly because opacity about fees is the most common complaint victims raise about recovery firms.
Never, and neither does any legitimate party. Demands for a release fee, unlock payment, tax, or insurance bond on money supposedly waiting for you are the defining structure of the recovery scam. If someone contacts you claiming to be us and asks for one, it is not us. Report it to your national fraud body.
Yes, and generally before anything else. File with your national fraud reporting body, notify your bank or exchange, and report to the relevant financial regulator. These steps cost nothing, create an official record, and preserve options that private investigation cannot substitute for.
Tracing is usually weeks. Anything involving courts is usually months to years. Be sceptical of any timeline promised at intake, including a short one — the variables that dominate schedule are jurisdictional and outside any investigator's control.
We document where and why, and tell you. A trace that ends at an unregulated venue in a non-cooperating jurisdiction is a real finding, and knowing it is worth more than continued billing against a dead lead.
No. If the amount is small relative to what an investigation costs, or the funds have clearly reached a point where nothing is enforceable, we say so at intake instead of taking the engagement. Turning down work you cannot help with is not generosity, it is the minimum standard.

Case review
You will get a candid assessment of whether a trace is worth running — including if the answer is no.
Contact your bank or exchange and file with your national fraud reporting body before engaging any private firm. Those steps are free, time-critical, and cannot be replaced by private investigation.
A fee to "release" or "unlock" recovered funds, payment in cryptocurrency to an individual wallet, your seed phrase or private keys, or remote access to your device. Any such request is a scam, regardless of whose name is on it.
Your submission is sent over an encrypted connection directly to our case review team. We treat everything you send as confidential and will only use it to assess your matter and respond to you.
Send the transaction details and correspondence. You will get a candid read on whether a trace is worth running — including if the answer is no.
