Secure what the business owns before trying to recover the design.
What this means
A stalled project is easier to handle when the domain, hosting, email, billing, files, and access are documented.
What to do first
1. Save contracts, invoices, and messages. 2. Check domain and host ownership. 3. Change access only through accounts the business controls. 4. Copy available files and backups.
When to leave it alone
Do not destroy the old site or start a public fight before preserving the evidence and access.
Your next move
If you cannot tell what the business controls, bring the account list to a Tech Audit.
Can I get my domain back?
The answer depends on registration and proof of control; start with the registrar record.
Should I rebuild immediately?
Only after you know what is live, what is recoverable, and what the customer path needs.
