About us

Passion. Experience. Virtue.

Based in the United States, Van Orton Recovery is a white-glove recovery firm that helps fraud victims get their money back. Blockchain and cryptocurrency transactions can be hard to follow, but your story isn't over. We find where your funds went, go after them, and handle the complex parts so you can focus on moving forward.

As technology evolves, so does fraud. Over the past four years, we've dedicated more than 14,000 hours to studying financial fraud cases, uncovering how cybercriminals operate and launder funds. This expertise allows us to restore victims' hope, dignity, and financial stability, driven by a commitment to integrity and compassion in every case.

Our methodology goes beyond forensic accounting and open-source intelligence to recover concealed assets even when no paper trail exists.

Unlike public agencies bound by jurisdictional constraints, we move quickly and follow the money wherever it leads.

We operate where the fraudsters are

Trading and investment scams almost always originate outside the United States. Our team members have lived in many of the jurisdictions where fraudsters operate, and we speak eight languages fluently, so we're not limited by knowledge, language, connections, or geography on any case we take. We are the only asset recovery firm able to pursue cases in Russia, China, and Southeast Asia, with extensive local contacts.

We share our investigative findings with relevant U.S. agencies including the FBI and the Department of Justice. In August 2025, our intelligence was directly instrumental in a $5.6 million asset freeze.

Find out what can be recovered in your case

Your free consultation starts with a short case assessment: about 5 minutes to tell us what happened. An investigator then replies within 60 minutes, and you can ask as many questions as you like.
