Skip Tracing
Professional Skip Tracing & Locate Investigation Services
Finding Who You’re Looking For, Quickly, Discreetly, and Ethically.
Skip tracing is the sophisticated and methodical process of locating a person whose current whereabouts are unknown. The term “skip” itself comes from the phrase “to skip town,” historically referring to debtors who would flee to avoid their financial obligations. Today, the need to locate individuals extends far beyond debt collection. At BC Investigative Services, we have refined skip tracing into a professional investigative discipline, blending state-of-the-art data technology with the invaluable asset of human intelligence and seasoned investigative intuition. Under the leadership of Bonita Haller, our team of highly skilled skip tracers understands the profound urgency and sensitivity that often surrounds the need to find someone. Whether you are an attorney who must locate a defendant to serve a lawsuit, a business performing critical due diligence, a creditor seeking to recover a judgment, or a family member trying to reconnect with a lost relative, our services provide the accurate, reliable, and timely location information required to take your next crucial step.
Our skip tracing methodology is far more robust and effective than a simple internet search. While public search engines can provide surface-level information, they often yield outdated, incorrect, or incomplete data. Our investigators, in contrast, have privileged access to a vast network of proprietary, professional-grade databases that are not available to the general public. These powerful resources contain billions of constantly updated records, including non-public address histories, utility records, credit header information, known associates, vehicle registrations, and much more. However, access to data is only the starting point. The true expertise of a professional skip tracer lies in their ability to analyze, cross-reference, and interpret this information. Our team knows how to sift through massive datasets to identify patterns, connect seemingly disparate pieces of information, and uncover credible leads that automated systems would miss. Every potential lead is meticulously verified through multiple sources to ensure the highest degree of accuracy before we deliver our findings to you. This analytical rigor is what distinguishes our professional investigative work from amateur people-finding websites.
BC Investigative Services provides expert skip tracing for a wide array of legitimate business and legal purposes. For the legal community, our services are an indispensable litigation support tool. We locate defendants and witnesses for service of process, find missing heirs for probate and estate cases, and identify the location and assets of individuals for post-judgment recovery efforts. A successful skip trace can be the single most important factor in moving a stalled case forward or ensuring a judgment can be collected. For financial institutions, landlords, and other businesses, we locate customers who have defaulted on loans, leases, and other financial agreements. By finding the individual, we empower you to re-establish communication and pursue your legal and financial remedies. Furthermore, we integrate skip tracing into our comprehensive due diligence and employment screening services, helping to verify an individual’s residential history or investigate the background of potential business partners.
At the core of all our skip tracing operations are the principles of discretion and legal compliance. We are acutely aware of the sensitive nature of this work and the critical importance of privacy. Every investigation is conducted with the utmost confidentiality to protect all parties involved. Moreover, our operations are conducted in strict compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, including the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), and the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act (DPPA). This commitment to ethical and legal conduct ensures that the information we provide is not only accurate but also permissibly and legally obtained. When you have reached a dead end in your search, turn to the experts at BC Investigative Services. Bonita Haller and her dedicated team possess the advanced tools, extensive experience, and unwavering persistence required to succeed where others have failed.
