What is skiptracing?

Skip tracing is a specialized private investigation service used to locate individuals who are difficult to find—whether they’ve intentionally disappeared, changed residences, or gone off the grid. Licensed private investigators perform skip tracing to uncover a person’s current location, contact details, and activity patterns, helping clients reconnect, recover assets, or serve legal documents.

Skip tracing is commonly used in cases involving missing persons, debt recovery, judgment enforcement, witness location, background checks, and infidelity investigations, and more.

Professional investigators rely on advanced tools and lawful databases unavailable to the general public. They cross-reference credit headers, property records, utility data, social media footprints, and digital traces to build a verified and legally defensible profile of a subject’s whereabouts.

Skip tracing services are often offered in tiers, with basic packages providing location confirmation and contact details, and advanced tiers offering deep-dive analyses, including known associates, financial assets, travel behavior, and social network mapping. Higher-tier investigations are ideal for complex or time-sensitive cases where accuracy and discretion are paramount.

For example, a private investigator in Los Angeles may perform skip tracing to locate a former tenant who vanished after causing property damage, or to find a key witness in a civil lawsuit who moved out of state. The same investigative process can help reconnect estranged family members or verify the location of individuals in fraud or infidelity cases.

Unlike automated “people finder” websites, private investigation skip tracing combines human intelligence, lawful data access, and real-world experience to deliver accurate, current results while respecting privacy and compliance laws.

Whether you’re trying to find someone, recover assets, or verify an address, professional skip tracing by a private investigator provides clarity, precision, and peace of mind—whether in Los Angeles or anywhere in the world.
