Below are three very brief highlights from our extensive Case Studies typifying our tracing process and success.
Emma:
Emma wanted to find a lost family member – her father, whom she hadn’t seen for 17 years. Our initial database research indicated he had moved on, but to where? Our further investigations led us to search in the USA where we successfully located him.
Jane:
Jane needed to find the owner of some land behind her home to seek consent before extending her property. This was a complex case which involved extensive database research and applying for historical documents. Soon, though, we put our client and the landowner in touch and they were able to complete the necessary transaction, enabling Jane to build on the land.
John
We received instructions from John in a company’s finance department asking to locate a debtor. John was able to provide the subject’s full name, last known address and date of birth. Based on these 3 key pieces of information, we located the debtor and John’s company has since been able to successfully collect the funds they were due
