I originally posted a review in July 2023 when I fell victim to a bogus day trading investment scam. At the time Wealth Recovery Solicitors were able to successfully secure a partial refund from the banks. Even though this was a step in the right direction the partial refund was a small fraction of the total monies lost to the scam. However Josh Chinn and his brilliant team were not done there. They stuck by me and were confident they could recover significantly more of my losses. They believed that the banks had a duty of care to protect vulnerable customers. They’re also better positioned to recognise potential scams, and therefore in this instance they should have done more to prevent such a sizeable loss. The next step was to escalate my complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service. Josh Chinn and Hannah Daw were clear with what the journey would look like and they kept me in the loop every step of the way. They made me well aware that this would be a lengthy process. After 14 months I received the incredible news from Josh that they have managed to recover 70% of my losses! Josh and his team were relentless and fought tirelessly on my behalf. My mental and physical health has suffered immeasurably due to this ordeal. My wife has shared the same anxious discomfort for so long. As the loss to the scam was in excess of £100,000 the financial implications has been extremely damaging. I initially reported the scam to the Action Fraud and the banks and I was shocked to discover how useless and unsupportive they were. Wealth Recovery was my last roll of the dice and at this point I was reduced to no hope and barely had any fight left in me. However after speaking with WRS, they were the first and only people I felt were on my side. Being scammed is such a lonely place to be due to the feeling of shame and unbearable anxiety. WRS cared and played a vital role in me and my family getting our lives back. I owe WRS a huge debt of gratitude. What these people do is effectively save lives and I don’t use those words lightly. If you have been unfortunate enough to get caught in the trap of scammers, look no further than WRS. They are the real deal and extraordinary at what they do.

I picked up WRS on a google search, read the reviews and decided to contact them to see if they could help me with a Crypto scam. Right from the start they’ve been helpful and thorough, I’m about a month into the case and they’ve already recovered some of my funds. Can’t recommend Sophie and WRS enough, true lifesavers.

WRS have done a great job to date already recovering part of the money lost due to a crypto investment scam credited back to my account within a couple of weeks from providing all relevant information and authorisation to proceed . They appear already to be an extremely professional company with regular contact and updates being provided by Sophie.

Josh was so helpful with getting all my money back that I lost through crypto. He was so helpful and informative the whole way through the process. I will always recommend him to anyone who needs help recovering funds. I personally lost six figures, which he got back for me within two weeks. UNBELIEVABLE SERVICE.

A big thank you to Avi and the team for helping me with my case and all its hurdles along the way. I didn’t expect to recover a penny but with the help of WRS, a large amount of the capital was recovered. Would highly recommend.

The team at wealth recovery solicitors have been really amazing. Hannah has been absolutely great with how she has handled my case so far with the banks. They have recovered some of my funds and our working on recovering the rest for me now. I really wasn’t expecting anything back at all so very grateful for this. The whole team pay a lot of attention to detail and reply quickly to my queries and I trust them to work on recovery the rest of my funds. I would highly recommend this firm.

Josh & his team have done a great job & should be applauded for their determination & patience to resolve my case successfully. I would highly recommend this company.

Professional and a great team, always available to talk things through providing great advice. A big thankyou to Grace for all of her great work!

Wealth recovery have explained the processes thoroughly in terms of fighting for scammed funds. They were very informative on the phone and by email, we’ve really appreciated their help (Avi, Nic & Hannah – thank you) We went down the no win no fee route which has taken 7 months, they told it would be 9 months, so it was quicker than expected. We have recovered some lost funds.
