I need to serve someone, but don’t know their address. Can you find them for me?
Locating an individual, by law, requires “permissible purpose”. Therefore, we can only legal skip-trace for law firms or those who have retained a licensed attorney.
If you are an attorney, you can order a Locate+Serve by selecting "Yes" if asked if you'd like to "Order investigation to locate and serve the best address?"
Improve your chances for successful service. We'll locate the best known address for service and serve your documents there.We recommend this option if you:
- Don't know the address or have a partial address
- Question the source of your address
- Want your documents served as efficiently as possible
Please note it takes 2-5 business days to complete the address trace. Attempts begin after the trace is completed.
