What this office handles
Investigative services
Missing persons work is the specialty. The services below support it, and are also taken on as cases in their own right.
The specialty
Missing persons investigations
We gather information, develop leads and pursue the avenues that may help locate an individual. Records research, skip tracing, interviews and field work, run in the order the case actually calls for.
Also handled
Other investigative services
Any of these can run alongside an open missing persons case, or stand on their own as a case in its own right.
Skip tracing and locates
Finding a current address, employer or associate for someone who has moved on, gone quiet or does not want to be found. Database work, public record research and old fashioned legwork, cross checked before anything is reported back to you as fact.
Typically used for
Debtors, heirs, witnesses, former tenants, lost family
Background investigations
A documented picture of who a person actually is before you hire them, go into business with them or let them near your family. Records, history and verification of what you have already been told, with the sources noted.
Typically used for
Hiring, partnerships, tenants, new relationships
Surveillance
Discreet observation, logged and documented, for questions that can only be answered by watching. Conducted lawfully and from a distance, with times, locations and observations written up so the record stands on its own.
Typically used for
Activity checks, claims, cohabitation questions
Domestic and family matters
Sensitive work handled quietly, at the pace the family needs. Custody and welfare concerns, cohabitation questions, and situations where people need facts before making a decision they cannot take back.
Typically used for
Custody concerns, welfare checks, family disputes
Records and asset research
Public record, property, corporate and court research assembled into something you can actually use. Sourced, dated and organised so it holds up when an attorney, an insurer or a judge asks where it came from.
Typically used for
Litigation support, judgments, estates, due diligence
Witness location and statements
Tracking down people who saw something, approaching them properly, and taking a clean statement while the memory is still worth having. Regularly used by attorneys preparing a case and by families chasing a loose end.
Typically used for
Attorneys, insurers, families following a lead
Engagement
How a case is taken on
The same four steps whichever service you come in through.
You describe the situation. Nothing is committed and nothing leaves this office.
You get a straight answer on whether investigative work will help, including when it will not.
Scope, cost and update schedule are agreed in plain terms before any work begins.
The case is worked directly by the investigator you spoke with, and reported in writing.
Worth saying plainly
Every service on this page is carried out within what the law permits. This office does not obtain phone records, financial records or private data by pretext, and does not sell certainty. Where the lawful answer to a question is that it cannot be answered, you will be told that instead of being sold the work.
Start a case
Not sure which one fits?
Describe the situation and you will get a straight answer on what can be done, what it involves and whether you need an investigator at all. The caseload here stays deliberately small, so the answer comes from the person who would work the file.
