About

Provided by J.S. Held

J.S. Held is a specialist asset tracing firm, recognised internationally as a leader in high stakes and multi-jurisdictional recovery initiatives. The firm is engaged by law firms, corporates, financial institutions, litigation funders and individuals to gather evidence and to recover monies owed across the globe.

J.S. Held's work primarily supports the enforcement of arbitration claims and legal awards. The firm is also retained pre-litigation to evaluate the asset position of respondents and to inform the client’s legal and recovery strategy. Ultimately, J.S. Held provides the actionable intelligence required to determine whether to pursue a debtor and, subsequently, to convert an arbitral award or judgement debt into cash through legal process or negotiated settlement.

J.S. Held takes a strategic approach to asset recovery, targeting both high value assets that meet the judgement amount as well as those that may not meet the monetary value of the award but create disruption or loss of face for the debtor. Successfully identified assets range from real estate and cash to cargoes, aircraft, vessels, intellectual property, retention monies, financial instruments, crypto-currency and more.

J.S. Held’s findings have been used in support of LCIA, ICSID, SCC, ICC and various commercial court claims globally. This has included underlying evidence, affidavits and witness testimony.
