Sound familiar?

Is this what you're dealing with?

You don't need proof to reach out. A feeling is enough to start.

  • “You lost touch with a friend or family member.”
  • “You need to reach someone for a legal matter.”
  • “Someone owes you money or property and moved.”
  • “You need an address to serve court papers.”
  • “You're not sure where to even start.”
Locate a Person

How does finding a person work?

People move, change numbers and lose touch. A locate search uses legal sources to find where someone can be reached now.

We start with what you already know. Then we check public records and other lawful resources, where permitted.

We only take locate cases for legitimate reasons, and we screen every request. If a search could put someone at risk, we won't do it.

What we help with

What we can help you find out.

  • Where does this person live or work now?
  • Is there a current way to reach them?
  • Have they moved out of Nashville or Tennessee?
  • What public records can help point the way?

Clear lines

What we can legally use.

Results depend on what's available. No one can honestly promise a specific result.

What we can look at

  • Public records, where available
  • Public online information
  • Professional locate tools, only where the law allows
  • Details you already have, like old addresses or phone numbers

What we never do

  • Find anyone who has a protective order against the requester
  • Help anyone find a person who could be put at risk
  • Track phones or cars
  • Use lies or fake identities to get information

We screen every locate request and say no when someone could be put at risk.

FAQ

Questions about finding someone.

Someone I love is missing. Can you help?

Call 911 or your local police first. They can act fast in ways we can't. Missing-person searches are not a separate service of ours, but once police are involved, we can talk about whether a lawful locate search fits your situation.

Can a private investigator find someone?

Often, yes, when there is a lawful reason. Results depend on the information available, so no one can promise it.

What is skip tracing?

Skip tracing is a term for finding someone who moved or is hard to reach. It uses public records and authorized resources.

Why do you screen locate requests?

To keep people safe. We decline any request where someone could be put at risk, including people protected by a court order.

Will the person know I'm looking?

We don't contact them unless you ask us to and it's appropriate for your situation.

How long does it take to find someone?

It depends on how much you know. A recent address or phone number helps a lot.

How much does it cost to find a person in Nashville?

It depends on the case. You get a clear quote before any work begins.
