Do you need to find someone in a hurry? You may need to acquire someone’s signature, serve someone papers, connect someone to a client of yours, provide a witness, collect debts or something else. Sometimes, addresses change for commonplace reasons. Other times, people who don’t want to be found do a smart job of hiding themselves.

If you’re looking for a person and your search so far has gotten you nowhere, we can help. Whether you know the term or not, you’re looking for skip tracing services. At justice, our esteemed network of private investigators locate people for corporate, legal, and personal purposes using professional tools, an understanding of human psychology, and years of experience.

Who Can A Skip Tracing Investigation Find?

We often use the same variety of tools and skills to find people for varied and complex reasons. Here are some of the  subject we commonly search for on behalf of our clients:

Debtors. One of our most common skip tracing initiatives is to find those who are defaulting on a loan or running from bill collectors.

Court Appointed Witnesses. When witnesses are appointed for court proceedings but cannot be found at the expected address, trials can be delayed. We can help.

Defendants and Bail Skippers. Skip tracers also resurface hiding criminals or the accused and return them to expected proceedings of justice.

Benefactors. Recipients of assets left behind in wills need to be found and made aware of their new inheritances. Otherwise, the assets are in limbo.

Separated Spouses. In lengthy battles for parental rights, child support payments, or permissive divorce, we often search for needed counterparts in order to make things right for children and families.

Family Members. We have also reunited biological children with their birth parents or joined long-estranged family members.

More Than Just a Database Search

While we do have advanced access to databases of private information, we can – and must – do far more than perform a database search to find your person of interest. Thoughtful canvassing, careful analysis of data, and surveillance are required to cover the last .

Is Skip Tracing Ethical?

There are strict and unwavering expectations on the ethical performance of skip tracing services – as with any type of investigation. Not all modes and methods of finding a person are ethical, which is why investigtors in out network are vetted for integrity and ethics.

Stalking, threatening, bribing, or otherwise manipulating a person of interest or third-party source is completely unethical and prohibited in our practice. We don’t intimidate, harm or forcibly detain the people we find.  We don’t peruse or pry into any source of information that isn’t public or, if private, ethically and legally open for our use. We don’t employ outside entities to assist in skip tracing and only make case notes available to relevant agents or parties within our organization. It is important to us – and imperative to our industry – that we are discreet but honest and forthright where possible and that we proceed with concern for an appropriate privacy and safety of all involved individuals including the subject of our search. This way the conduct of your investigator will never reflect poorly on you or your organization.
