These Terms and Conditions govern your use of the CFS PLLC website and services. By accessing our website or submitting a case, you agree to be bound by these terms. Please read them carefully.
By accessing the CFS PLLC website at cfspllc.com, or by submitting a fraud report, case evaluation, or any enquiry through our website, you ("you", "the client", or "the user") agree to be legally bound by these Terms and Conditions ("Terms"), our Privacy Policy, and any additional agreements or engagement letters you sign with us.
These Terms apply to:
If you are using our services on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms.
CFS Partners LLC ("CFS PLLC", "we", "us") provides the following services to individuals and businesses affected by fraud:
The free case evaluation is a preliminary assessment only. It does not constitute legal advice, does not create an attorney-client relationship, and does not obligate CFS PLLC to take your case. An attorney-client relationship is only formed when both parties have executed a written engagement agreement.
Our services are limited to civil recovery, documentation support, and regulatory reporting. We do not provide criminal defence services, family law, immigration law, or any legal services outside the scope of fraud recovery and investigation.
CFS Partners LLC operates on a success-based fee model. This means:
The exact fee percentage will be clearly stated in a written engagement agreement signed by both parties before any billable work begins. The percentage varies based on:
Any third-party costs incurred on your behalf (court filing fees, expert witness fees, international legal coordination fees) will be communicated to you in advance and require your approval. These disbursements are separate from our success fee.
CFS PLLC will never ask you to pay an upfront fee as a condition of beginning work on your case. Any request for upfront payment is not authorised by CFS Partners LLC and should be reported to us immediately at contact@cfspllc.com.
CFS Partners LLC provides professional fraud investigation and legal support services with skill, diligence, and good faith. However, we expressly make no guarantee, warranty, or representation that:
Recovery outcomes depend on many external factors beyond our control, including the cooperation of financial institutions and exchanges, the jurisdiction in which the fraud occurred, the quality and availability of evidence, and the actions of third parties.
We will always provide you with an honest assessment of your case and will not accept cases where we do not believe a reasonable recovery pathway exists. Past results in similar cases do not guarantee the same outcome in your case.
By engaging our services, you agree to the following obligations:
You agree to provide accurate, truthful, and complete information when submitting a case report or engaging our services. Providing false, misleading, or incomplete information may result in termination of our engagement and may expose you to legal liability.
You agree to:
You agree not to send any further payments to any party involved in the fraud you have reported. Making additional payments to the same fraudsters — including so-called "recovery fees" or "tax payments" demanded by the original scammers — will seriously jeopardise your case.
You agree to cooperate fully and promptly with our team, respond to communications within a reasonable timeframe, and attend any required consultations or proceedings.
You confirm that you are submitting a genuine fraud report and that you are using our services for lawful purposes only. You may not use our services to make false allegations, harass individuals, or for any other improper purpose.
CFS PLLC treats all client information with strict confidentiality. All case details, personal information, financial records, and communications are protected under attorney-client privilege and our professional obligations. We will not disclose your information to any third party except as described in our Privacy Policy or as required by law.
You agree to keep confidential any information, strategies, methodologies, or investigative techniques shared with you by CFS PLLC during the course of our engagement. You agree not to publish, share, or disclose such information without our prior written consent.
We may use anonymised, non-identifying information from completed cases for educational, marketing, or training purposes. No personally identifiable information will be used without your explicit written consent.
All content on the CFS PLLC website — including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, investigation reports, legal templates, blog posts, and software — is the exclusive intellectual property of CFS Partners LLC and is protected by United States copyright law, international treaties, and other intellectual property laws.
You may not:
You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access and use our website for personal, non-commercial purposes only.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, CFS Partners LLC, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and attorneys shall not be liable for:
Our total aggregate liability for any claims arising out of or related to our services shall not exceed the total fees paid by you to CFS PLLC in the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

Violation of these prohibitions may result in immediate termination of services, reporting to law enforcement, and legal action.
Our website may contain links to third-party websites, resources, or services (including blockchain analytics platforms, regulatory agency websites, and legal databases). These links are provided for your information and convenience only.
CFS PLLC has no control over the content, privacy practices, or availability of any third-party websites. We are not responsible for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of any third-party service. We encourage you to review the privacy policies and terms of service of any third-party websites you visit.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless CFS Partners LLC and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and attorneys from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from:
We reserve the right to refuse, suspend, or terminate our services to any individual or entity at any time, without notice, in our sole discretion — including where we reasonably believe:
You may terminate your engagement with us at any time by written notice. Termination does not affect any fees owed for work already performed or any recoveries already made on your behalf.
Upon termination, we will return your documentation and transfer your case file to you. Provisions of these Terms that by their nature survive termination — including confidentiality, intellectual property, limitation of liability, and governing law — will continue to apply.
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
We encourage you to contact us in the first instance to resolve any dispute informally. If a dispute cannot be resolved informally within 30 days:
To the extent permitted by law, you waive any right to bring claims against CFS PLLC as a plaintiff or class member in any class action, collective action, or representative proceeding.
Notwithstanding the arbitration clause, you agree that any injunctive or equitable relief sought by either party may be brought in the courts of Denver, Colorado, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by updating the "Last Updated" date on this page and, where appropriate, notifying active clients by email. Your continued use of our website or services after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
We recommend bookmarking this page and reviewing it periodically. The most current version of these Terms always supersedes all prior versions.
