Section 1782 Discovery (USA)
This is a powerful tool for foreign litigants. By identifying U.S.-based targets (banks, tech companies, or individuals), you enable clients to use the U.S. federal court system to compel the production of documents or testimony for use in a foreign proceeding. Our firm has been involved in several cases supporting firms and individuals to seek aid to collect evidences in the USA.

In the UK, USA, and Europe, "approximate" isn't enough for a judge. Your focus on accuracy is the differentiator here, as it provides the necessary foundation for courts to grant enforcement orders and asset freezes.

Representative Case Studies
$100M Crypto-Portfolio Recovery (UK Commercial Courts)
Our client’s $10M investment in 2019 ballooned to $100M by 2024. When the investment firm refused to release the funds, we coordinated a multi-jurisdictional strategy involving counsel in Italy, the UK, and the US. By deploying Human Intelligence (HUMINT) to uncover the counter-party’s history of ethical breaches, we provided the leverage necessary for a successful lawsuit.
High-Net-Worth Divorce & Asset Concealment (NY-Spain)
In a multi-billion dollar divorce, a husband declared bankruptcy in Spain, claiming to be insolvent. Within three months, our global asset search uncovered $70M in concealed assets across five countries, effectively debunking the bankruptcy claim in the New York courts.
Internal Fraud & Fund Diversion (Global Tech)
We conducted a two-year investigation into a sophisticated executive network that diverted €300M to subcontractors across Latin America and Europe. Our findings led to the dismissal of key leadership and the successful recovery of €180M.
Sanctions Evasion: The "Russian Screen" Investigation
A client suspected a Swiss partner was acting as a front for sanctioned Russian oligarchs. Our team successfully penetrated the corporate veil, obtaining documented proof of the financial network and the sanctioned individuals behind the scheme, which was then used in enforcement proceedings.
Section 1782 Discovery (USA)
We specialize in 28 U.S.C. § 1782, the federal statute allowing parties in foreign proceedings to obtain evidence (documents and testimony) from entities based in the United States. We bridge the gap between foreign litigation and US discovery, identifying the targets and evidence needed to trigger this powerful legal tool.
Divorce asset search in Europe
Our client filled a divorce lawsuit in Miami, Florida (USA) and provided a list of assets to split in the process. However the other party claimed to have filled bankruptcy in France where he owned most of the assets in the list. Our firm found assets held by a third party individual, allegedly not connected to our client´s spouse. Our work uncovered a hidden connection between the owner of those properties and the subject of investigation. The spouse never owned directly those properties and hired a professional proxy to hide them from our client.
Hotel acquisition scam in Czech Republic
Our client retained us to investigate how their share capital was diluted to end up owning just 2% of the shares of a hotel company from a 50%-50% ownership. The scam took place as our client delegated the ownership in a Czech national who was supposed to know the business and skip the administrative issues in that country. Our work was to re-build the shareholding structure from the beginning and gather intelligence in Andorra, Italy and the UAE, following the trails left behind by fraudsters.
Russian assets in Spain
Our client retained us to find assets owned by a well known Russian businessman who allegedly vanished from the USA leaving behind a large debt and bankrupted companies. Our work took place in Cyprus, Gibraltar, the Isle of Man and Maurizio and the Marshall Islands to find several proxies holding assets for the Russian businessman. Our work was presented at the courts of NY city.
