Whether you're trying to locate a witness, recover assets, serve legal documents, or investigate fraud, one challenge is nearly universal: the subject doesn't want to be found. That's where skip tracing comes in-and it's one of the most important (and misunderstood) investigative tools available today.

At National Business Investigations, Inc. (NBI), we've spent over 50 years refining the art and science of skip tracing. Our team combines proven investigative techniques with advanced data intelligence to locate individuals quickly, discreetly, and legally-no matter how far they've gone to disappear.

What Is Skip Tracing?

Skip tracing is the process of locating individuals who have intentionally or unintentionally gone off the grid. These may include:

• Former employees or business partners
• Individuals avoiding legal proceedings or debt repayment
• Missing heirs, beneficiaries, or witnesses
• Fugitives or persons of interest in legal matters

"Skip" comes from the phrase "skipped town," and the process often requires combing through layers of outdated or misleading information.

Why It's Critical for Legal and Business Success

In many cases, your ability to close a case, reclaim assets, or move forward with litigation depends entirely on locating the right person. Unfortunately, not everyone wants to be found-and public databases only get you so far.

That's where professional skip tracing gives you the edge.

At NBI, we have access to proprietary databases, social engineering techniques, and field surveillance teams that allow us to track down even the most evasive individuals-all while staying compliant with privacy laws and regulations.
