Legal Disclaimer

Attorney advertising

This website is attorney advertising. It is designed for general information only and is published by Attorney Mirano, the trade name of Altamirano PLLC, 1 World Trade Center, 85th Floor, New York, NY 10007. Jorge Altamirano is responsible for its content and is admitted to the New York State Bar, registration number 5220058.

Nothing here is legal advice

The information on this site describes types of matter and general legal concepts. It is not advice about your situation and must not be relied on as if it were. Whether you have a claim, against whom, in which forum and within what time limit depends on facts and on law that this site cannot know.

No attorney‑client relationship is created by this site

Reading this website, submitting the case review form, emailing the firm or telephoning it does not create an attorney‑client relationship. That relationship is created only by a written engagement agreed by the firm. Until then, information you send may not be protected as a privileged communication, although it will be treated confidentially in accordance with applicable law and the firm’s professional obligations.

No guarantee of recovery or of any outcome

No attorney can guarantee that funds lost to fraud will be recovered. Nothing on this website is a promise, prediction or estimate of the outcome of any matter. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each matter depends on its own facts and on the law that applies to it.

Nothing here accuses any person or company

The descriptions on this site are of patterns commonly reported in investment fraud matters. They are not statements about any identified person or company, and the presence of one or more of the features described does not establish that fraud has occurred. Whether particular conduct was unlawful is a question that can be answered only on the evidence, and in the appropriate forum.

Third parties

Regulators, registers and public authorities are named on this site because they publish authoritative information. They are independent bodies. Nothing on this site implies any relationship with, endorsement by, accreditation from, or affiliation with any of them.

Jurisdiction

Jorge Altamirano is admitted to practice in New York. The firm accepts inquiries from investors internationally and handles cross-border investment and cryptocurrency fraud matters, working with local counsel where a matter requires it. This website is not intended to solicit clients in any jurisdiction where the firm is not authorized to practice.

Security of communications

Please do not send passwords, private keys, seed or recovery phrases, authentication codes or full identification-document numbers through this website or by email. No lawyer, bank, exchange or regulator requires them.
