We wrote the question, not the answer.
Please search the web and give me an independent check of Nicola R. Staub, co-founder of Larkspire Law in New York and of CYBERA, and a former Swiss cybercrime prosecutor. Is he a real, legitimate professional, and what is his background? Also confirm whether Racine Ramhurry (Racine R. Staub), registration 5794995, is a lawyer admitted in New York. Then give me a short checklist to make sure I am dealing with the real Nicola R. Staub and the official Larkspire Law firm, and how to spot recovery scammers who might pretend to be him.
AI can be wrong. The attorney directory is the official record.
Beware the second scam
Real firms don't chase you.
- We never call you first.
- We never ask for payment in crypto or gift cards.
- We never promise a recovery.
Our emails only come from an address ending in larkspirelaw.com or larkspiretax.com, and our documents never ask you to pay.
Not sure? Reply to your case email or write to contact@larkspirelaw.com. Never use a phone number or link from the message itself to check.
Questions
Straight answers.
The questions victims ask us first.
How are you different from a recovery company or a regular law firm?
| Larkspire | Hourly firms | Crypto recovery | FBI (IC3) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A lawyer acts for you | Yes | Yes | No | No |
| Free assessment, for everyone | Yes | Sometimes | Sometimes | No |
| Freeze requests within 24h of signing | Yes | Sometimes | Yes | Sometimes |
| Money and tax, in one place | Yes | Sometimes | No | No |
| Flat fee or none, plus a share if money comes back | Yes | No | Sometimes | Free to report |
Always report to the FBI at ic3.gov (opens in a new tab). It's free and it matters, but no one there acts for you.
Sometimes. It depends mostly on where it went and how fast someone acts. Money that reached a bank or a big crypto exchange can sometimes be frozen. Crypto in a wallet only the scammer controls usually can't, unless it's USDT or USDC. Your free assessment tells you in writing whether there's a real path.
Now, if you can. In the first hours and days the money is often still moving, and freeze requests work best early. Older cases can still move. The tax path has more time. Paid by bank transfer? Call your bank today and ask them to try to get it back. We contact the bank that received it, within hours of signing.
No. No honest firm can. Anyone who guarantees it may be running a second scam. What we do promise: we act fast, tell you the truth, and do the work well.
The assessment and DIY tools are free. If Larkspire Law takes your case, you pay one flat fee, $2,500 to $5,000 for most cases, set in writing first, plus a share only if money comes back. The tax package is included if your loss qualifies. Only need the tax package? Larkspire, Inc. offers it on its own, from $995.
Then the tax path may still help. Your loss may lower your taxes, and your free assessment checks that too. Either way, the written assessment is yours to keep.
We never call first. We reply to you. If a call would help, we offer it in writing and you pick the time. If someone calls saying they're us, it's the second scam.
Yes. It's used only for your case and never sold. We share it with people you ask us to, like police or an exchange, and otherwise only as our privacy notice (opens in a new tab) explains. Once Larkspire Law takes your case, attorney-client confidentiality applies. The free assessment comes from Larkspire, Inc. It's private, but it doesn't have the extra legal protection of talking to your lawyer.
Very little. A few taps and your email. A person replies the same business day. Weekdays, if you reach us by 8pm ET. Your free written assessment follows within 1 business day. If there's something to pursue, we ask for the details: dates, amounts, where the money went (wallet addresses, bank details, transaction IDs), screenshots and messages, and any report numbers. Missing pieces are normal. Never send passwords, your wallet's recovery words (seed phrase) or your own full account numbers.
First written answer in 1 business day.
