— Client Review
Sometimes, finding someone isn't just helpful-it's critical. Whether you're an attorney needing to serve a subpoena, a business trying to recover assets, or an individual searching for a loved one, professional locate services can provide the clarity you need.
At National Business Investigations, Inc. (NBI), we've been helping clients for over 50 years by delivering accurate, discreet, and legally sound locates that get results.
What Are Locate Investigations?
A "locate" investigation is the process of finding a person's current address, place of employment, or other contact information. People may need to be located for many reasons, including:
- Legal cases - Locating defendants, witnesses, or judgment debtors
- Corporate needs - Finding former employees, partners, or shareholders
- Insurance cases - Identifying claimants for fraud investigation
- Personal matters - Reconnecting with family or locating heirs for probate
Why Professional Locates Are So Valuable
While online searches and social media can offer clues, they are often incomplete or inaccurate. People move, change names, and sometimes go to great lengths not to be found.
Professional investigators provide:
- Verified results - We cross-check multiple data sources to ensure accuracy
- Current information - Our methods reveal up-to-date addresses and contact info
- Legal compliance - Our investigations are conducted in accordance with state and federal laws so results can be used in court
- Confidentiality - Every case is handled with professionalism and discretion
NBI's Locate Process
At NBI, we combine advanced technology and experienced investigators to deliver results. Our process includes:
- Proprietary database searches unavailable to the public
- Interviews and field investigations where appropriate
- Cross-referencing information to avoid false matches
- Delivering comprehensive reports that are ready for legal or corporate use
When Time Matters, Accuracy Counts
A poorly done locate can cost time, money, and credibility in court. With NBI, you can trust that the person we find is the right one-and that our evidence is backed by decades of investigative experience.
