Our process
A structured, five-stage investigative process
Every case is assessed individually. Timelines below are typical ranges — complex, cross-border matters may take longer. Outcomes depend on available evidence, applicable jurisdiction, and the counterparties involved.
1. Initial consultation
Within 24 hours of enquiryA confidential intake call or written exchange in which we capture the basic facts of your case, the parties involved, the amount in dispute, and the documentation already in your possession.
2. Case assessment
1 – 3 business daysA specialist evaluates the structure of the fraud, the counterparties identified, and the likely jurisdictions in scope. You receive a written summary of whether — and how — the case can usefully be progressed.
3. Evidence review
3 – 7 business daysStructured review of transactions, communications, platform records, and supporting documents. Gaps in the evidence are identified and, where possible, addressed before deeper investigative work begins.
4. Investigation & tracing
2 – 6 weeks (case-dependent)Where the evidence supports it, we document fund flows, examine wallet activity, identify exchange touchpoints, and map the counterparties involved. The scope is agreed with you in writing before this stage begins.
5. Findings & recovery options
On completion of investigative workYou receive a written findings report setting out what we observed, the realistic options available, and — where appropriate — referrals to regulated legal, banking, or law-enforcement channels.
