Forensic accounting and blockchain analysis establish where your money went and where it sits now.

The recovery industry is full of second scams. That is why regulation matters.
Anyone can promise to "recover your crypto". Only a law firm answers to the Solicitors Regulation Authority, carries compulsory insurance, and owes you duties enforced by law. Before you speak to anyone about your money - including us - check the official register.

Questions people ask us first
How do I know you are not a recovery scam yourselves?
It is exactly the right question to ask - fake "fund recovery" services are one of the most common second scams, and you should be sceptical of everyone, including us. The difference you can verify: we are a law firm, authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority under number 8014337. Look us up on the SRA's official public register before you speak to us. No unregulated "recovery agent" can appear there, carry compulsory insurance, or be struck off for misconduct. Verify first, then decide.
Is it too late to do anything about my case?
Usually it is worth checking, even if some time has passed. Tracing does get harder over time, and there are legal time limits on some claims - but "a while ago" is not a reason to assume nothing can be done. The free case review will give you an honest answer for your specific situation.
How much does it cost, and when do I pay?
The initial case review is free and carries no obligation. If we take your case on, we will agree the funding arrangement with you in writing before any work begins, so you always know where you stand. We will never let costs run up by surprise.
