Skip Tracing Services

Can’t Find Them? Legal Papers Can.

We are experts at finding home and employment addresses. In this digital age, information is quickly transferred and easily computerized, but automated reports don’t guarantee a valid address. Nothing beats our Human Touch: each account is worked individually, with manual searches conducted by real live skip tracers and phone calls made during prime hours including Saturdays and Sundays. All reports are personally and manually researched to confirm addresses and places of employment. We never guess or rely on “possible” locations.

License & Tag Search

Locate individuals through vehicle registration records.

Basic Skip Trace – Home Address

Manual search to locate a current residential address.

Extensive Skip Trace – Employment Database Search

A combined search using the Social Security Number Scan to locate current home address, place of employment, and banking information for summons and wage garnishments.
