The purpose of an asset search is to determine the total assets of an individual or business entity. Depending on the goal of your asset investigation, these searches can uncover valuable information you need to move forward with a claim or case.
Why Do I Need to Conduct an Asset Investigation?
An asset investigation may be necessary in a variety of situations. A few examples include:
Pre-Litigation. You may want to conduct an asset check during the pre-litigation phase of a claim or case. An investigation into the subject’s assets may give you insight into whether the case is even worth pursuing.
Civil Cases. You can use asset investigation services for family law civil cases, such as child support or spousal support cases. An asset search can also be used in estate/probate cases to locate any assets the deceased person did not document well.
Bankruptcy Cases. An asset check can verify that the assets disclosed in a bankruptcy case are accurate.
Judgment Recovery. If you win a judgment in court, you want to know that the defendant has the means to pay you and where to levy their assets.
You may also want to use an asset check when investing in a property or business. An asset search can ensure that the business is legitimate and is worth what it claims to be worth.
