We are pleased to review judgment-recovery and hidden-asset matters, but please note that forensic accounting engagements commonly start around $30,000; accordingly, we typically proceed only where the judgment amount exceeds $200,000.
Cryptocurrency Tracking & Tracing
RSA Risk Management & Investigations, PLLC (RSA) provides specialized cryptocurrency tracking and tracing services for corporate, financial, and legal clients. Using forensic blockchain analysis and investigative expertise, RSA helps trace digital asset movements, uncover fraud, and support litigation involving crypto-related crimes.
RSA’s team is composed of highly-credentialed, federally-trained certified specialists and expert witnesses.
More than 125 years experience in conducting criminal, civil and administrative investigations.
Why Crypto Tracing Matters
Digital assets are frequently used to move, conceal, or quickly convert value. In marital dissolution, bankruptcy, judgment enforcement, and fraud matters, the ability to trace cryptocurrencies and other virtual assets and to reconstruct profit and loss (P&L) is often essential to locating property, proving claims, and supporting court-ordered relief.
RSA Risk Management & Investigations, PLLC provides end-to-end cryptocurrency investigations designed for use in litigation.
We identify wallets and exchange accounts, trace funds across blockchains, and reconstruct trading histories to surface known and not-yet-known transactions. Our findings support discovery, settlement, asset recovery, and expert testimony.
Benefits of Proactive Fraud Examinations
Key capabilities:
- Wallet & Exchange Identification – Correlate on-chain activity with off-chain records (bank/ACH/wires, exchange statements, device data, and correspondence).
- Blockchain Tracing – Follow funds through addresses, clusters, and services (exchanges, mixers/tumblers, bridges, DeFi protocols, NFTs, stable coins).
- P&L Reconstruction – Build a defensible ledger of buys/sells/transfers, cost basis, fees, realized gains/losses, and holdings at key dates (e.g., date of separation, petition date).
- Undisclosed Asset Detection – Surface crypto-funded acquisitions (real property, vehicles, luxury goods, business interests) that do not appear in traditional banking records.
- Attribution & Escalation – Identify counterparties and service providers for targeted subpoenas and preservation requests.
Where this applies:
- Marital/Family Law: – Locate undisclosed wallets, quantify marital vs. non-marital interests, value positions at legally relevant dates, and apportion realized gains/losses.
- Bankruptcy & Insolvency – Identify estate property, trace pre-petition transfers, analyze preferences/fraudulent conveyances, and support turnover actions.
- Judgment Enforcement – Map on-/off-ramps, freeze reachable assets, and inform post-judgment discovery and collection strategy.
- Business & Fraud Disputes:– Trace misappropriation, vendor kickbacks paid in crypto, insider trading of tokens, and diversion to affiliated entities.

Red Flags We Address
- Sudden transfers from business or marital accounts to exchanges or payment apps
- Regular small “off-ramp” cashouts that avoid internal controls
- Use of privacy-enhancing services (mixers/bridges) without business justification
- Unexplained capital inflows to affiliated wallets or entities
- Purchases of assets inconsistent with reported income
Practical Notes & Limitations
- Some privacy coins and services reduce visibility; we mitigate with off-chain records, device data, and legal process to service providers.
- Calculations rely on the completeness and reliability of available records; we identify gaps and propose remediation (e.g., targeted subpoenas).
