Words from those we’ve brought home.

I had given up. After two years and four “recovery firms” that took my money and disappeared, Debt Recovery Solutions was the first to actually trace my funds. Within five weeks I had $ 340,000 back in my account.

08 · Common Questions

Plain answers to hard questions.

Yes. Every initial consultation is conducted at no cost and without obligation. We assess viability, jurisdiction, and likely recovery ratios before any fee arrangement is discussed. If we cannot help, we will tell you directly.
Most cases operate on a contingency basis: a percentage of recovered funds, agreed in writing before work begins. Complex investigations may involve a fixed-fee component to cover forensic tooling and external counsel — always disclosed upfront, never contingent on the outcome.
Often, yes — though success depends on the specific mixer, timing, and exit behaviour. Modern mixers (Wasabi, Samourai, Tornado Cash) can be defeated using peeling-chain heuristics, timing analysis, and cross-chain attribution. Our analysts have published research in this area.
Our 2024 average was 42 days from intake to first returned funds. Simple cases can resolve in under two weeks; complex multi-jurisdictional matters may take several months. We provide weekly progress reports throughout.
Absolutely. All communications are conducted under solicitor–client privilege where applicable, encrypted end-to-end, and stored in GDPR-compliant infrastructure. We will never disclose your case without your written consent or a lawful court order.
