Undisclosed asset identification
Real estate, financial accounts, vehicles, vessels, business interests, judgments, liens — surfaced when the debtor's schedules don't match the public record.
For Bankruptcy Trustees
Asset recovery for the estate.
OnTrial supports Chapter 7 and Chapter 11 trustees and recovery counsel with undisclosed-asset identification, fraudulent transfer investigation, cryptocurrency tracing, 2004 examination preparation, and adversary proceeding investigation.
For matters where the schedules don't match the public record and the recoverable estate is larger than it looks.
The work
Where the estate's real value gets found.
Cryptocurrency tracing
A Global CryptoScan identifies potential exchange and payment-app accounts linked to the debtor's and known affiliates' identifiers; custom cryptocurrency tracing then follows funds on-chain where the estate needs it. Frequently the asset class missed entirely in Schedules and the Statement of Financial Affairs.
Fraudulent transfer investigation
Documenting the transfer trail — recipients, timing, consideration, and badges of fraud — for both intentional and constructive fraudulent transfer adversary proceedings.
Insider & affiliate diligence
Beneficial-ownership mapping for shell structures used to receive transferred assets. Background workups on insiders, family members, and recipient entities.
Lifestyle & geolocation
Pattern-of-life analysis when the debtor's reported financial position is inconsistent with documented lifestyle — used to support exemption-planning challenges and undervaluation arguments.
Debtor background workups
Prior litigation, prior bankruptcies, prior business interests, related-party history — for context the schedules don't provide. Skip tracing locates debtors and insiders.

FAQ
For bankruptcy work, specifically.
- Can OnTrial identify assets the debtor didn't schedule?
- Yes. Asset searches surface real estate, financial accounts, business interests, judgments, and liens tied to a named debtor — including assets held through related entities. Cross-referenced against the schedules and SOFA to identify omissions.
- Does OnTrial trace cryptocurrency holdings for bankruptcy recovery?
- Yes. Global CryptoScan identifies potential cryptocurrency-exchange and payment-app accounts linked to the debtor's and known affiliates' identifiers — often the starting point. On-chain tracing of where funds moved, wallet attribution, and subpoena targeting run as a custom-scope cryptocurrency tracing engagement. Crypto is frequently the asset class missed entirely in the schedules.
- Can OnTrial support a fraudulent transfer adversary proceeding?
- Yes. Engagements document the transfer trail — recipients, timing, consideration, and badges of fraud — paired with beneficial-ownership mapping on recipient entities and background workups on insiders. Defensible for adversary proceedings and avoidance actions.
- How fast can OnTrial turn around an asset workup?
- Flash Asset Search returns in 1–2 business days. Complete (US) Asset Search returns in 7–10 business days standard, 3–5 business days on rush. Global CryptoScan returns in 4–5 business days standard, 2–3 business days on rush. Flash Asset Search is already the fastest tier, so it has no rush option. Custom cryptocurrency tracing is scoped per engagement.
