Successfully Secured the Inheritance of 800 Million KRW in Cryptocurrency

사건 개요

Client Information: Individual / Party

Case Details: In 2023, Bittrex, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, declared bankruptcy, putting the inheritance of Ethereum (ETH) 166 and Bitcoin (BTC) 2 at risk for our client. The total value of the assets amounted to approximately 800 million KRW.

However, the client missed the creditor filing deadline, making it difficult to claim their inheritance.

디센트 전략

The heirs resided in both the United States and South Korea, requiring all legal documents to be prepared in English. Additionally, the claim had to be filed directly with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court under the applicable American bankruptcy procedures.

Decent Law Firm provided comprehensive support, including proving the client’s status as an heir, communicating with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, and completing the creditor filing process to safeguard the client’s assets.
