About this service

Locating people and heirs

Sometimes the only thing holding up a deal, an inheritance or a legal case is one person who canโ€™t be found. Decades may have passed, the name may be spelled differently in another country, and the traces are scattered across several sources.

I connect those traces from open sources: public records, social networks, legal databases and lawfully purchased commercial databases. When needed, and with your approval, a local investigator abroad can be added.

The deliverable is an answer: where the person is, or who their heirs are, together with how I got there.

When you need it

When clients come to me

  • When a landowner has died and the heirs are unknown
  • When a shareholder vanished years ago and the company is stuck
  • When a fraudster deceived people and disappeared
  • When you need a summary of what is publicly known about a person

Yes. When needed, and with your approval, a local private investigator and professional translation can be added, priced separately.

Is the tracing legal?

Yes. I work only with open sources and lawfully purchased databases. How I work.
