ASSET SEARCH

Asset Searches are used to reveal the financial profile an individual or business. Asset Searches can be useful in personal matters and in business affairs. There are several level of asset searches, from a basic search of public records to very thorough "deep" asset investigations, which can reveal hidden assets such as offshore accounts. (If you are looking for asset searches in other areas, select Legal Asset Search or Business Asset Recovery.)

Get started by choosing a type of service from the Asset Search Options grid at the bottom of this page.

In personal matters asset searches are used when divorce is eminent or in process. There are other times when one needs to know about the assets of another party, such as in prenuptial (premarital) situations, where they are used to confirm that a potential spouse has the financial means that they claim to have. Asset searches are also useful in estate and probate matters where the assets of the deceased are not fully determined.

In business matters asset searches are used to determine the financial worthiness of a potential partner, also known as due diligence investigations. In matters where there is a potential for legal action, they can be used to determine the ability of a party to pay if the lawsuit is successful. In instances where one party owes money to the other, they are used to collect a debt or judgment. This includes the collection of small claims judgments. In some cases an individual may have declared bankruptcy, yet there is a possibility that assets may have been sequestered.

We often tell clients that discovering assets is an art not a science. This is especially true of the more thorough investigations in cases where assets are deliberately being shielded and hidden. In these instances you need the skills of seasoned professionals whose knowledge of the ways such assets are hidden enable them to produce positive results on your project.

Tristar Investigation offers a wide variety of Asset Searches. The table below spells out each level of investigation we offer. Note that each successive level includes all the previous levels of investigation, plus those listed in the section. For a free consultation or to get started right away on your project, call us for service throughout California and the US at (800) 487-0947 or e-mail us at info@tristarpi.com. You can also order your investigation on line by going to our online order page or downloading our fax form.
