United Kingdom and Canada
A crypto lawyer for the UK and Canada
People search for a crypto lawyer when they want a named solicitor, not a stranger in a chat who says the coins can be forced back. Harvey Kaye is that solicitor. He was admitted on 15 March 2017, he holds a current practising certificate, and he works at RVK Legal Services Limited in Hale, Altrincham. He takes this work from the United Kingdom and from Canada. The letters are in English.
If you are in the United Kingdom
Report the fraud to Report Fraud, online or on 0300 123 2040. In Scotland, report to Police Scotland on 101. Tell your bank. The FCA Warning List is worth reading, and a name missing from it is not proof the platform was real. Most crypto activity sits outside the ombudsman and the compensation scheme, which is why the emails and the transaction IDs matter.
Harvey advises as a solicitor of England and Wales. Scotland has its own courts. If a Scottish court is the right place, a Scottish solicitor is instructed, and you agree to that first.
If you are in Canada
Report the fraud to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, and to your local police. Keep the report numbers. Provincial regulators, including the Ontario Securities Commission, publish warnings about unregistered platforms. Check them before you send anything else.
We do not practise Canadian law. If a Canadian court is required, a Canadian lawyer is instructed. You are told who that is, and you agree in writing, before your papers are shared.

The plain terms
Harvey Kaye is the solicitor at RVK Legal Services Limited, a firm authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. SRA ID 8009455. His own SRA number is 609496. He was admitted on 15 March 2017. The work is done in English.
You pay nothing to start, and nothing if nothing comes back. If money reaches your bank, by a settlement or through a court, the fee is 12.5% of what you receive. In a typical matter that is the only charge from this firm. We sign a written agreement before we act for you. Sending a form does not start that agreement.
We never ask for a seed phrase, a private key, a password, or remote access to your phone or computer. If someone does, and uses our name, it is not us.
We cannot take clients who are citizens or permanent residents of the United States, Germany, Italy, or France.
