Trace and track the person you need

With backgrounds in the police and military, the team at M19 Solutions are experts in tracing and tracking down missing people. Whether it’s a runaway debtor or a long-lost relative, we’ll provide the information you need about their whereabouts and activities.

Missing person cases come in all shapes and sizes. It could be a ‘moonlight flit’ where a tenant has fled to avoid paying rent. Or it could be completely innocent, such as a family member who you’ve lost touch with. Whatever the case, it can feel almost impossible to track them down without the right expertise.

That’s where M19 Solutions come in. Our tried-and-tested process for tracing people will save you hours, days and weeks of time and stress. Simply give us as much information as you can, and we’ll do the rest, filling in the blanks like their current address, workplace or even a new name they’re using.

Tracking

Fully trained

Each member of our team comes from a police or military background, combined with extensive training on the latest person tracing methods.

Confidential

Nobody needs to know a thing about your person tracing case. Our skilled operatives will keep everything discreet and confidential.

Comprehensive

From addresses and workplaces to names and aliases, we aim to provide everything you need to know about a person of interest.

Which people can we trace?

There are a wide range of reasons why you might want to trace someone. Whatever the case, it will only cause you more stress and uncertainty the longer you leave it. At M19 Solutions, we employ a variety of methods to work on several different types of person tracing requests.

money

Debtor absconding

If someone owes you money and doesn’t want to pay it, chances are they will try to go off the grid. With M19 on the case, that simply won’t work. We’ll track down your debtors so you can take action.

front door

Moonlight flits

Tenants fleeing without paying rent is one of the most common forms of dodging debt. Landlords can use our services to find out where their past tenants are living and recover the money they’re owed.

Witness

Missing witnesses

Witnesses are critical to any legal case. But if you can’t find them, they can’t give evidence. Give us as much detail as you can, and we’ll identify your witnesses and get you the details to contact them.

sisters

Searching for family members

Want to get back in touch with a long-lost relative? Meet up with a distant second cousin? Or find the location of a missing partner? Our team will trace their location to give you the information you need.

flowers

Tracing an heir

If somebody has passed away, you might need to locate an heir to their wealth or possessions. Similar to a relative search, we can trace relatives or past partners to provide much-needed closure.

family

Locating a biological parent

It’s only natural that many adopted children want to meet their biological parents. But far too often, the old details you have lead you nowhere. We’ll put the pieces together and put you in touch.

self-employed

Tracing self-employed business people

Self-employed business people and contractors can be much harder to trace than companies. That’s incredibly frustrating if they owe you money or haven’t completed the work you need. Our team will help you put things right by tracing their whereabouts, contact information and more.

businessman

Locating directors or shareholders

Directors and shareholders hold the power in any business. But what if you can’t find them – or even find out who they are? Our professional investigators will do the digging for you to identify and locate shareholders and directors for any business.

FAQs on how we trace a person

Our person tracing services aim to put your mind at ease. That’s why we’ve provided answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about tracing a person.

You can trace pretty much any person that you need to. Whether it’s a debtor who’s absconded, a missing relative or something completely different, it’s always worth getting in touch with our person tracing experts to see how we can help.

With our high level of expertise, it’s possible to get good results form very little information. That said, the more information you can provide from the outset, the better our chances are of finding the person you are looking for.

As a minimum, it’s advantageous to have a person’s full name, date of birth and last known address. Their occupation and names of their partner or children can also speed up the tracing process.

For most cases where we trace a person, the main requirement is to find their location and current address. However, in some instances, we can also find out additional information such as their workplace, aliases and who they’re living with.

With cases of this nature, it’s impossible to guarantee success. However, our agents will always be clear and honest from the get-go, giving you an accurate idea of how likely we are to trace a person based on the information you’ve given us

We use a variety of techniques and resources to trace people. This ranges from legally obtainable databases to social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter. We also draw upon a network of agents worldwide to help find people who are particularly hard to trace.

The time it takes to trace a person depends entirely on the specific case. For some people, we can have a current address within a couple of days. For others, it could take weeks. What’s important is that we’ll always be clear about the time we expect your case to take and our team will keep you updated throughout the process.

Unfortunately, there’s no one-size-fits-all cost for tracing a person. The price can vary depending on how much information you provide as a starting point, how many people are involved and how long the case takes. To avoid any unexpected costs, our team will provide a clear, fixed quote so you can make an informed decision in your own time.
