Who we find
People stop being findable for all sorts of reasons. Some are avoiding a debt or a document. Some simply moved on twenty years ago and lost touch. We handle both.
- Debtors and people avoiding service of documents
- Beneficiaries and lost relatives
- Old school friends, former partners, birth family
- Witnesses required for a legal matter
- Anyone whose current address you need and cannot obtain yourself
What we need from you
Start with whatever you have. A full name is ideal. A date of birth, a last known address, a former workplace, a partner’s name or an approximate age all help and each one narrows the search considerably.
You do not need all of it. Our research staff work from partial information routinely, using specialised investigative techniques and databases that are not open to the public.
What you get back
A current residential address, and where it is available, contact details, so that you can make contact yourself. We do not make the approach on your behalf unless you ask us to and there is a proper basis for it.
Cost and turnaround
Location work is quoted as a fixed fee agreed before the search begins, so the cost does not run away from you. Most searches resolve within a few days. Call the office and we will tell you honestly whether what you have is enough to work with.
When we cannot find someone
Most searches succeed. Some do not, usually because the person has left the country, has legally changed their name, or is in a protected circumstance where their address is deliberately withheld.
We will tell you honestly when we think a search is unlikely to succeed before you commit to it, rather than taking the fee and reporting failure later. We also will not provide an address where there is any indication it would be used to harass or intimidate somebody.
