Find Anyone, Anywhere — Legally and Discreetly.
Licensed investigators using professional-grade databases and field techniques to locate individuals who don't want to be found.
Professional Locate Services
Skip tracing is the investigative process of locating a person who has moved, changed contact information, or is deliberately evading contact. FactFinders uses a combination of proprietary databases, public records, and field investigation to find individuals across the country.
Our investigators have located subjects in complex, time-sensitive matters for law firms, process servers, insurance companies, and private individuals. We provide verified contact information — not just a list of possible addresses.
All locate work is conducted in compliance with applicable laws, including the FCRA where applicable, and with full respect for privacy regulations.
Types of Locate Investigations
Individual Locate
Find a current address, phone number, or employer for a specific individual — for service of process, debt collection, or personal matters.
Missing Person
Locate family members, estranged relatives, or individuals who have lost contact — conducted with sensitivity and discretion.
Witness Locate
Find witnesses for litigation, insurance claims, or accident investigations who have moved or become unreachable.
Debtor Locate
Locate individuals or businesses for judgment enforcement, collections, or asset recovery purposes.
Evasive Subject
Locate individuals who are actively avoiding contact, service, or legal proceedings — including those using aliases.
Heir & Beneficiary Locate
Find heirs, beneficiaries, or next of kin for estate administration, insurance claims, or legal proceedings.
How We Locate Subjects
Information Intake
We gather all available identifying information — name, last known address, DOB, SSN, vehicle, employer — to build a subject profile.
Database Investigation
Our investigators access professional-grade databases unavailable to the public, cross-referencing multiple sources to identify current leads.
Records Research
Public records, court filings, property records, and utility connections are searched to corroborate and extend database findings.

Results From the Field
Anonymized examples from actual investigations. Client and subject details are withheld to protect confidentiality.
Defendant located after three failed service attempts
A process server had made three unsuccessful attempts at a defendant's last known address. Our skip trace identified a current residence in an adjacent county within 36 hours, allowing service to be completed and the case to proceed before the statute of limitations deadline.
Judgment debtor located after relocating out of state
A creditor's attorney had lost track of a judgment debtor who had moved without notice. Our investigation traced the subject through employment records, utility connections, and public filings to a confirmed address in a neighboring state — enabling the attorney to domesticate the judgment and pursue collection.
Missing heir located after 20+ years of no contact
A probate attorney needed to locate a beneficiary who had been out of contact with the family for over two decades. Using genealogical research and proprietary database tools, we identified a current address and confirmed the subject's identity — allowing the estate to proceed to final distribution.
All case examples are anonymized. Names, jurisdictions, and identifying details have been omitted or altered to protect client and subject confidentiality.
