Solicitors, then counsel
The enquiry is run inside a solicitors' practice. We instruct counsel where advocacy is needed. External investigators and forensic specialists are engaged where the matter requires them, with their role explained.

What we do
The file is held here.
Built for contested facts
Cross-border records, wallets, internal fraud and regulatory scrutiny are ordinary in this work. Overseas steps are taken with local counsel where foreign procedure is required.
Tools under supervision
Where the volume of records is the problem, we may use Cobra AI, an intelligence platform published by IYE Global. Nothing from it is treated as a finding until someone on the matter has reviewed it.
Facts of the practice — not results of cases.
Scale claims, awards and recovery figures are easy to invent. They are also easy to check. The figures below are taken from this site and the public SRA organisation record. We do not publish recoveries, win rates, staff counts as a proxy for credibility, or rankings.

How the work is done.
Evidence before a narrative
Devices, accounts and originals are preserved first. A story that cannot be exhibited is not used.
One matter, named responsibility
Solicitors, investigators and forensic specialists sit on the same matter. Each instruction is supervised by a named solicitor.
Proportion
We explain when pursuing value is unlikely to justify the cost, and when a prosecution is not supported by the evidence.
Discretion
Financial crime is reputationally sensitive. Enquiries are handled confidentially. Do not send passwords, private keys, seed phrases or original identity documents through the website.
Talk to us
Give us a concise account of the matter, the people or organisations involved and any immediate deadline. This allows us to conduct an initial conflict check and decide whether the issue falls within our practice.
