Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing the Latham & Watkins LLP(GDE) website or contacting us via WhatsApp, Crisp chat, or any other channel, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use our services.

2. Consulting & Investigative Services Only

GDE provides consulting, forensic analysis, and investigative services related to asset tracking, blockchain forensics, and fraud analysis. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice. Any legal recommendations are for informational purposes only; you should consult with a qualified attorney for legal decisions.

3. No Guarantee of Recovery

While we employ advanced forensic and legal strategies, asset investigation outcomes depend on many factors outside our control (e.g., exchange cooperation, scammer jurisdiction, blockchain anonymity). GDE does not guarantee the recovery of any funds, and no statement on our website or in communications constitutes a guarantee of recovery.

4. Confidentiality

All information you share with us will be kept confidential to the extent permitted by law. However, we may need to disclose information to exchanges, law enforcement, or legal authorities to support investigation efforts. By engaging our services, you consent to such limited disclosure.

5. Fees & Payment

We operate on a contingency or hourly fee structure depending on the case. Details will be outlined in a separate engagement agreement. No fees are charged for initial consultations. All fees are disclosed before any work begins.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, GDE and its employees, partners, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from the use of our services or website. Our total liability shall not exceed the fees paid by you, if any.

7. Intellectual Property

All content on this website (text, graphics, logos, icons) is the property of GDE and may not be reproduced without permission. You may share links to our site, but you may not copy substantial portions without written consent.

8. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party sites (e.g., Pexels, WhatsApp, Crisp). We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.
