Crypto Fraud Recovery

When Digital Assets Are Stolen, We Fight To Get Them Back

In today’s booming crypto landscape, innovation flourishes—but so do sophisticated fraud schemes. As federal oversight recedes, bad actors are exploiting regulatory gaps with increasingly complex schemes that leave investors devastated.

Treanor Devlin Brown’s founders prosecuted digital payment fraud before the blockchain existed. Now we’re applying these skills to recover assets for victims of cryptocurrency scams, whether you’re an individual investor, venture capital firm, or institutional player in the digital asset space.

Protecting Investors and Companies Across the Crypto Ecosystem

Our representation extends to all participants harmed by blockchain fraud:

  • Individual victims scammed by rug pulls, pump-and-dumps, market manipulation, hacks or pig butchering scams
  • Investors in fintech projects  who backed crypto and blockchain projects that weren’t what they were claimed to be
  • Legitimate crypto exchanges whose reputations and and businesses are damaged by projects making false claims to get listed or using the exchanges for market manipulation 
  • Companies developing legitimate blockchain solutions harmed by competitors’ fraudulent claims
  • Trading firms and market makers victimized by manipulative counterparties
  • DeFi platforms damaged by exploits and fraudulent activity
  • DAOs and collectives whose assets were misappropriated

Have You Been Targeted By These Schemes?

  • Investment Fraud – Projects with impressive whitepapers and roadmaps that vanish after funding
  • Pump and Dump Manipulations – Orchestrated price inflation through influencer promotion before insider selloffs
  • Rug Pulls – Developers abandoning projects after draining liquidity pools, leaving worthless tokens behind
  • Market Manipulation – Phony “market making,” wash trading, spoofing and illiquid “liquidity pools”
  • Insider Trading – Undisclosed advance trading on token listings and protocol changes
  • “Pig Butchering” Schemes – Sophisticated social engineering tactics that build trust before extracting funds
  • Blockchain Vaporware – Startups raising capital on fake technological claims and phantom blockchain solutions
  • Smart Contract Exploits – Deliberate code vulnerabilities designed to siphon investor funds
  • Governance Attacks – Manipulation of governance tokens to extract value from legitimate protocols

Former Federal Prosecutors Who Recovered Billions—Now Fighting For You

Unlike general practice firms just discovering crypto, our founding partners built their careers prosecuting technologically sophisticated  financial fraud. We’ve led landmark cases that recovered over $5 billion in ill-gotten gains and sent sophisticated financial criminals to prison.

Now we’re applying that prosecutorial intensity and technical understanding to recover your stolen assets and hold perpetrators accountable.

Our Multi-Dimensional Recovery Strategy

We deploy a comprehensive approach tailored to cryptocurrency fraud:

Criminal Recovery Track – Our relationships with federal prosecutors and law enforcement agencies help initiate criminal investigations that can freeze and recover assets through formal proceedings. We know how to package cases for successful prosecution and navigate asset forfeiture proceedings to benefit victims.

Strategic Civil Litigation – We pursue direct action against fraudsters, exchanges, promoters, and enablers through precisely targeted lawsuits engineered to maximize recovery and overcome jurisdictional challenges unique to cryptocurrency cases.

Class Action Leadership – For widespread schemes affecting numerous victims, our class action practice aggregates claims to create leverage that individual suits cannot achieve:

Regulatory Engagement – We leverage our deep relationships with agencies to encourage enforcement actions that compliment private recovery efforts.

Technical Sophistication Meets Legal Excellence

Our team combines litigation firepower with authentic cryptocurrency expertise:

  • Blockchain Forensics – We partner with leading analytics firms to trace assets across chains and through mixers
  • Smart Contract Analysis – We work with technical experts to document exploits and prove malfeasance
