Why Robert

Most "recovery" firms send emails. We build cases.

Founded in 2011 by Robert Ellison, a former bank fraud analyst, our practice was built on a simple frustration: victims were being told their money was gone, when the evidence trail was often still warm.

  • No upfront recovery fee. You pay for the investigation. Recovery is contingent on results.

  • We never ask for passwords or card details. Not once, not ever — treat anyone who does as a scammer.

  • Written weekly updates. Named investigator, direct line, and a case file you keep at the end.

  • Honest assessments. If a case isn't recoverable, we tell you in the first call and charge you nothing.

The Process

Four stages. Zero guesswork.

From the moment you submit your case, you'll know exactly what happens next — and when.

01

Free Case Review

Submit your details. Within 24 hours a licensed investigator calls you, reviews the evidence and tells you honestly whether there's a viable path.

Day 1 · No cost

02

Forensic Investigation

We trace the funds, identify the receiving entities, map mule accounts and compile a court-admissible evidence file with full chain of custody.

Days 2–14

03

Recovery Action

Recall requests, exchange freeze notices, regulatory complaints and — where needed — legal filings through our partner network in your jurisdiction.

Weeks 2–12

04

Return & Report

Recovered funds are returned to your verified account. You receive the complete case file, and we file the official fraud report on your behalf.

Client Outcomes

Real people. Real recoveries.

Names shortened and details anonymised at client request. Every review below is from a closed case.

"I lost $86,000 to a fake trading platform. Three other firms told me it was gone. Robert's team traced it to two exchanges in nine days and got 71% back. I still don't quite believe it."

Margaret L.

Investment fraud · United Kingdom

"The weekly written updates were what kept me sane. I always knew what was happening, who was working on it, and what the next step was. Total professionals."

Daniel R.

Wire fraud · Canada

"After a romance scam I was humiliated and didn't want to tell anyone. They handled it with zero judgement and recovered $22,400 from a mule account. I cried on the phone."

Priya S.

Romance scam · Australia

"They told me upfront my case had a 30% chance. No false promises. We got the money back through a chargeback six weeks later. That honesty is worth more than the refund."

Tomás A.

Card fraud · Spain

"Our company lost $240,000 through a business email compromise. Robert's team worked with our bank and the FBI field office. We recovered 88% within four months."

Kevin O.

Red flag warning

No legitimate recovery firm will ever ask for your online banking password, card PIN, or a "release fee" paid to a third party. If they do, it's a recovery scam.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no — and anyone who guarantees it is lying. Recovery odds depend on how quickly you act, whether the funds hit an identifiable bank or exchange, and the jurisdiction involved. In your free review we give you a realistic percentage estimate and the reasoning behind it. Roughly 87% of the cases we accept end with some assets recovered.

The initial case review is free. If we take the case, you pay a fixed investigation fee — quoted in writing before any work begins — and a success fee only on funds actually returned to you. There are no hidden charges, no "release fees", and no payment requests from third parties. Ever.

Simple chargebacks and bank recalls can resolve in two to six weeks. Crypto tracing and exchange freezes typically take one to three months. Cross-border litigation can run six to eighteen months. You'll get a projected timeline in your case plan and weekly written updates throughout.

Absolutely not. We never ask for passwords, PINs, seed phrases, or one-time codes, and we never request remote access to your devices. What we do need are transaction records, screenshots, correspondence with the fraudster, and any reference numbers — all of which you can redact where necessary.

Most are. We work with correspondent banks, international exchange compliance teams, and a vetted legal panel across 42 countries. Cross-border cases are slower, but the money usually passes through at least one regulated institution — and regulated institutions respond to properly documented legal pressure.

Yes. All case data is stored encrypted (AES-256), access is restricted to your assigned investigator and legal strategist, and we never share, sell or publish client information. We're registered with the relevant data protection authorities and comply with GDPR and UK DPA requirements.
