Asset tracing and recovery is often a crucial part of resolving disputes involving fraud, misappropriation, or breach of trust. It involves identifying and securing assets which may have been unlawfully taken, hidden, or transferred across jurisdictions. At Eldwick Law, we assist clients in navigating this process with speed and precision.
Asset recovery requires a forensic approach to identify and follow assets across a network of jurisdictions, vehicles, and ownership structures. Our team has experience dealing with high-value asset tracing matters, including cases involving offshore structures, nominee arrangements, and cross-border transfers. We work closely with leading forensic investigators, both financial and digital, to trace the movement of assets and establish ownership. These investigations can help clients gather the evidence needed to take legal action. Where appropriate, we support claims through civil channels to maximise recovery options. We have particular expertise in matters where assets are at risk of dissipation and early action is necessary.
We regularly assist clients in applying for urgent interim remedies designed to secure assets before a final judgment is reached. These include freezing orders, proprietary injunctions, disclosure orders, and search and seizure orders. Our team is equally experienced in defending such applications, advising clients on how to respond effectively. In many cases, we can also assist post-judgment by advising on enforcement routes and working with local counsel to recover assets held abroad.
Our approach is both international and commercially driven. Our multilingual team has extensive experience acting across England & Wales, the Middle East, Europe, and the former CIS. We are also adept at selecting and coordinating with local counsel, and we regularly manage cross-border disclosure, service, and enforcement processes in complex, multi-jurisdictional disputes.
