LITIGATION INTELLIGENCE:
The advantage of information to win

Corporations are constantly faced with pivotal, game-changing decisions that require rigorous analytical scrutiny. We support firms by providing qualified expert opinions regarding key strategic manoeuvres and their projected impacts.

​

Our work provides new lens to look at problems and decision making from a 360 degree angle to make sure firms do not miss relevant items to make wise and on-time decisions.

​

 

Strategic decision making

Companies dynamics require to make decisions that impact the way companies operate and will operate in the future. A company is a gear wheel where changing a single item may impact the way the whole system works.

 

  • Simulations: Our team has experience and expertise in war games and simulations of what will happen when changing management styles, corporate structure, reporting lines or recruiting policies.

  • Industries peers experience collection: Through our expert network we conduct discreet consultations of what happened in other companies that started the same journey. Our advisory work reflects what industry experts learned and don´t share publicly.

  • Competitors opinion about your company: Knowing what competitors think about your company its an invaluable asset to learn from and explore what to accomplish in the near future

​​

Identify critical bottle necks and measuring reporting reliability

We have conducted dozens of interviews inside companies to know what may be working well and what not. Our interview methodology helps to overcome issues such as politically correct employees, reality vs assumptions, lack of reporting, inaction in serious fraud, corruption or harassment cases.

​

 

  • Confidential interviews: Interview findings are reported in blind mode, so top management don´t know who said what. Anonymity helps employees to disclose issues to a third party that would not report internally.

  • 360 analysis: We identify all companies stake holders and conduct discreet consultations about the target company to know their opinion about them.

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.

 

Specialized Investigations

 

  • Private Equity Litigation: We proved that a target company knowingly withheld data on technology malfunctions during an acquisition, allowing our PE client to recover their failed investment.

  • Whistleblower Support: We assist whistleblowers in navigating US government programs, providing the necessary connections to report corporate crime and unlawful activity securely.

 

Conclusion

Winning a legal dispute requires more than a strong argument—it requires bullet-proof evidence and the ability to anticipate the opponent's next move. We fill the knowledge gaps, transform data and information into intelligence, and ensure our clients enter the courtroom with a definitive competitive advantage
