FINANCIAL & HIDDEN ASSET SEARCH INVESTIGATIONS

When you need to be certain of payment recovery or to be confident that a claim of insolvency is genuine, our Licensed and Certified Financial Investigators expertly perform nationwide asset searches and comprehensive financial investigations. A team of Law Degreed Private Investigators draw upon a diverse range of skills, technology, professional networks, and resources to conduct financial fraud and asset search investigations as well as discovering hidden bank and brokerage accounts. Undisclosed Assets are discovered in both domestic and international settings.

Licensed Investigators remain proficient in locating hidden assets and conducting Financial Investigations for clients ranging from spousal partners, parents, employers, employees, and parties entering into a financial partnership or agreement, through to victims of individual or corporate fraud, theft, and other financial crimes.

We routinely assist claimants who have successfully won judgments in litigation but who have trouble recovering their awards from the defendant.

A hidden bank account may consist of the subject going to a small bank and opening an account that is unknown to the spouse, so that he can conceal the money for an extended period of time, as the couple begins talking about a divorce. Individuals and businesses frequently try to engage in hidden accounts in order to avoid losing their assets to court-ordered judgements, in order to evade federal or state taxes, or in divorce proceedings when assets declared by each party are determined as marital assets and child support. When attempts are unsuccessful, these companies or organizations put assets into special accounts only available to the individual(s) named in the accounts.
