CRYPTO ASSET TRACING - Crypto Legal

Our Process

1. Planning The Case

If you have lost money as a result of cryptocurrency fraud, you must report it to the police as a crime as soon as possible.

Our team of experts will investigate and analyse the transactions to uncover valuable information related to the case. We look at the behavioural patterns, origination and current location or status of the cryptocurrency in question, identify parties involved, indicators of fraud, dark market interactions, money laundering, and more to provide actionable insights and information.

2. Evaluate Situation

Using deep knowledge and technical understanding of the complex cryptocurrency ecosystem, our experts will evaluate the situation and design an efficient and effective investigative strategy focused on fact-finding. These facts are presented in an easy-to-understand manner via verbal communication, expert reports, and written opinions. We utilise cutting-edge, proprietary technology and workflows to provide deep information not seen in typical blockchain explorer reviews to prove or disprove activities or behaviours for alleged offences.

3. Take Action

In all scenarios, our forensic team acts with the utmost speed and efficiency. We know that in many cases, timing is crucial to the preservation of key facts and data. That’s why our professionals work to assess data populations, determine data source types, analyse actions of individuals and preserve evidence rapidly. We then deliver reports on case intelligence within the shortest possible timeline, helping organisations and individuals to quickly understand the matter and implement appropriate actions.

Expert Guidance

Our consultants excel in balancing the presentation of complex technical findings related to emerging cryptocurrency issues with clear communication tailored for non-technical audiences. We provide forensic reports and opinions that are both accessible and impactful.

Data Protection

Data security is a fundamental aspect of our operations. We handle highly sensitive information, which necessitates robust data protection measures. We are committed to helping our clients maximise the value of their data while addressing global data privacy requirements and proactively mitigating security risks. Safeguarding client information is paramount, especially when their future is at stake.

We Take Care

We recognise that pursuing a cryptocurrency fraud case can be a stressful experience, particularly when dealing with the emotional consequences of being a victim. That is why we keep you informed about the status of your case at every step. By removing jargon from the process, we strive to make everything as straightforward and stress-free as possible.
