## Frequently asked questions
### What does Celia do, and what does the lawyer do?
Celia is the case bank: it holds the wallets of those defrauded and the evidence, and pools the claims into one case. The lawyer or law firm takes it from there: they run the case in their own court and settle with the victims. Celia holds no funds, runs no cases and pays no one.

### Does Celia hold my money?
No. Celia is a case bank. It holds the wallet addresses of those defrauded and the evidence, not funds. Any recovery is handled by the lawyer or firm running the case.

### Do you declare fraud?
No. We establish falsity and loss from the chain, evidence knowledge, and collect reliance from the victims themselves. Each finding states what is proven and what is not proven.

### Is it free to report fraud?
Reporting is the first step. Celia does not pay lawyers. Any fee is agreed between you and the lawyer or firm that takes your case, for example a retainer or a written agreement with counsel, under the rules of your jurisdiction.

### Will I get my money back?
We can’t promise an outcome. We build the strongest evidence we can and put it in front of a lawyer. If a case settles or succeeds, the lawyer or firm handles the recovery, as the settlement terms allow.

### Who sees what I submit?
What you submit is shared with the lawyer or firm handling your case. It is not published.

### How are lawyers matched?
By jurisdiction and practice area. Any lawyer or firm that can take the case can run it, wherever they practise.

### Why commit the method onchain first?
The claim, the tests and the thresholds are hashed and committed to a smart contract before any data is touched. That shows the method was not tuned after seeing the results, so nobody can say we went looking for a finding.

### Which jurisdictions are covered?
You can search every country and territory, and the states, provinces and regions inside them, on our Jurisdictions page. Victims and clients alike can confirm the statutory regulation that governs their province there. Where a rule is mapped we say which of the four kinds it is. Where it is not mapped yet we say that, and never guess.
