Digital-Asset Discovery in Divorce: Interrogatories, Document Demands, and Exchange Subpoenas After July 1, 2026

Standard bank-account requests miss private wallets, DeFi activity, and other self-custody holdings. Learn to draft interrogatories and document demands that capture them, subpoena cryptocurrency exchanges across state lines, qualify a blockchain forensic expert, and compel disclosure when a spouse refuses.

Course Overview

The Crypto Is Out There. Standard Discovery Won’t Find It

2026-12-15 12:00:00

Digital assets no longer sit entirely off the record. Form 1099-DA and Revenue Procedure 2024-28 are bringing IRS reporting to cryptocurrency. New York’s 22 NYCRR § 202.16 and California Family Code § 1101 widen what a spouse must disclose. How much these changes will surface in discovery is still unfolding, and the gaps are real.

Ask only for bank accounts, and private wallets go uncaptured. Demand point-in-time balances, and valuation-date disputes stay open. Delay the preservation letter, and evidence on devices can disappear. Move to self-custody, and your exchange subpoena stops reaching the assets. Skip the foundation, and your blockchain forensic expert’s tracing gets harder to defend under Daubert.

You walk out with a working framework: preservation letters, tailored interrogatory categories, document demand checklists designed to survive a motion to compel, and targeted exchange subpoenas. You also get the judgment calls no template or AI tool makes for you: when to bring in a forensic expert, and when to seek contempt or adverse-inference relief.

Key topics that will be covered

01
Preservation Letters First
Use a preservation letter to protect evidence on phones, computers, and other devices before a spouse can destroy or transfer digital assets.
02
Interrogatories Beyond Bank Accounts
Draft interrogatory categories that capture private wallets, DeFi activity, and self-custody holdings, and use red flags in bank and credit card records to build indirect discovery.
03
Transaction-Level Document Demands
Demand transaction-level data with timestamps rather than point-in-time balances so the court can resolve valuation-date disputes and your demands survive a motion to compel.
04
Anticipating Form 1099-DA
Anticipate how Form 1099-DA, Revenue Procedure 2024-28, and the January 1, 2026 cost-basis reporting phase may change the tax and broker records you demand, and where reporting gaps may remain.
05
Subpoenaing Cryptocurrency Exchanges
Serve subpoenas on domestic exchanges like Coinbase or Kraken, know which records to demand, and recognize what a responsive production looks like.
06
Tracing and Compelling Disclosure
When assets move into self-custody, lay the foundation for blockchain forensic tracing, qualify the expert under Daubert, and seek court relief if a spouse won’t hand over public keys or self-custody wallet addresses.

Drafting Interrogatories and Document Demands That Capture Digital Assets in Divorce

This session teaches family law practitioners how to draft interrogatories and document demands that identify, preserve, and value cryptocurrency, NFTs, DeFi activity, and other digital assets in divorce litigation. Attendees will learn how recent IRS reporting mandates (Form 1099-DA, Revenue Procedure 2024-28) and state disclosure reforms (New York 22 NYCRR § 202.16, California Family Code § 1101) expand the paper trail available in discovery, and solutions to minimize exposure from the gaps that remain. Attorneys will leave with a working framework for preservation letters, tailored interrogatory categories, and document demand checklists designed to survive a motion to compel.

Subpoenaing Cryptocurrency Exchanges and Compelling Disclosure in Divorce Litigation

This session teaches divorce attorneys how to subpoena centralized cryptocurrency exchanges and compel disclosure of self-custody wallets through court orders, blockchain forensics, and sanctions. Attorneys will learn the mechanics of serving exchange subpoenas across state lines, bridging the cold-wallet gap with forensic tracing experts, and using contempt and adverse-inference motions when a spouse refuses to identify self-custody wallets. By the end of this session, attendees will be able to draft targeted exchange subpoenas, evaluate blockchain forensic expert qualifications under Daubert, and anticipate how the January 1, 2026 cost-basis reporting phase may impact the discovery landscape.
