Stolen in a wire fraud, hidden behind a judgment, moved to defeat a divorce, or buried across entities before a deal — when the question is where the money actually is and what can still be reached, we trace it and document it so someone with the authority to act can move.
Money disappears two ways: stolen in an instant by a hijacked wire, or hidden patiently over years behind shell companies and retitled property. The situation changes; the question doesn't — where did it actually go, who holds it now, and what can still be reached?
When it's stolen, speed decides everything. A fraudulent or misdirected wire moves hop to hop while a bank's process and a police report are still catching up, and the next seventy-two hours are where recovery is won or lost. We trace the money through that window — where it landed, who received it, and whether it's still there. It's the work that gave us our name.
When it's hidden, reach decides everything. A debtor who shows nothing collectable, a spouse whose disclosure doesn't add up, a counterparty whose position looks too clean — we surface the accounts, the property, and the business interests held just out of view, and test what's claimed against a fuller picture of what's actually owned.
We find it and document it; we don't freeze accounts or move money — a bank or a court does that. But a freeze, a clawback, or a collection action is only as good as the intelligence under it. Recovery is never guaranteed. It's also impossible without first knowing exactly where the money is — and that is what we deliver.
A hijacked or fraudulent wire, traced to where it landed and who holds it — in the window when a freeze is still possible.
A judgment you've won but can't collect, turned into a live target by surfacing what's actually reachable behind a ‘collection-proof’ debtor.
Accounts, property, and interests concealed, retitled, or shifted to defeat collection — surfaced and documented.
A financial disclosure that doesn't add up, tested against the assets a spouse actually holds.
Verify what a counterparty owns and owes before you wire, lend, or partner — not just what they put on paper.

A national real-estate firm wired roughly $2 million in commissions to an account controlled by an intruder who had infiltrated their email and redirected the payment. Their bank wouldn't act; law enforcement couldn't move in time. We traced the funds to the destination account within 24 hours, and — through our legal relationships — the money was frozen before it could move again.
A judgment debtor who presented as having nothing reachable was resolved to active banking relationships and property held through related entities — turning an uncollectable judgment into a live recovery target.
We don't move money or freeze accounts ourselves — a bank or a court does. What we provide is the intelligence that makes recovery possible: where the funds went, who holds them, and the documentation a freeze or clawback requires, produced fast enough to act on and sourced well enough to stand up. Recovery is never guaranteed — but it is impossible without first knowing exactly where the money is, and that is what we deliver.
Not necessarily, but the window is real. Money moves hop to hop, so the sooner we start, the more likely the funds are still somewhere they can be frozen. If you think a payment was misdirected or stolen, the time to call is now, not after the bank finishes its review.
Often, yes. ‘Nothing to collect’ usually means nothing was found — not that nothing exists. We work to surface the accounts, property, and entity interests behind a debtor and identify what's actually reachable, so enforcement has a target.
We don't freeze accounts or move money ourselves — a bank or a court does. What we do is locate and document the funds and, through our legal relationships, put that in front of someone with the authority to act. Recovery is never guaranteed, but it starts with knowing exactly where the money is.
If a wire was stolen or misdirected, the next 72 hours decide whether it comes back. If it's being hidden behind a judgment or a divorce, we'll surface it. Either way, send us the details and we'll get started.
