Beyond the Database

Most searches stop
where ours begin.

A database result is a starting point. A confirmed location is a deliverable.

Most skip tracing services return a report of database hits and call it done. Delator doesn't. Our locate operations combine proprietary database access with active field verification — because an address that existed six months ago is not a confirmed location today.

Our investigators are trained in the investigative tradecraft developed through military and federal law enforcement careers. We understand how people move, how they hide, and how to find them through the trail they inevitably leave — whether they intend to or not.

When Delator delivers a location, it has been verified. When we say a subject is confirmed at an address, an investigator has confirmed it — not a software algorithm. That distinction matters when your case, your recovery, or your client's outcome depends on what you do next with that information.

Locate Services

Every type
of locate.

From straightforward address verification to complex evasive-subject operations, Delator's locate services scale to the difficulty of your case and the stakes attached to finding who you need.

01  ·  Core Service
Standard Subject Locate

Current address, employer, and contact verification for individuals who have moved, changed numbers, or simply fallen out of touch. Combines database research with active field confirmation to deliver a verified, current location — not a historical record.

Current Address Employer Verification Contact Info Field Confirmed
02  ·  Legal & Collections
Judgment Debtor Location

Location of judgment debtors for enforcement, garnishment, and collection purposes. We go beyond address verification to confirm employment status, identify assets, and establish current residency — giving your legal team everything needed to execute on a judgment.

Debtor Location Employment Confirm Asset Identification Residency Verification
03  ·  Legal Support
Witness & Party Location

Location of witnesses, parties, heirs, and individuals required for legal proceedings — including those who have moved out of state, changed identities informally, or are actively avoiding contact. Delivered with documentation suitable for service of process follow-through.

04  ·  Evasive Subjects
Evasive & Hard-to-Find Subject Tracing

Full investigative locate operations for subjects who are actively avoiding contact, using aliases, moving frequently, or who have exhausted standard database search methods. This is where Delator's field investigation capability separates us from online locate services entirely.

Alias Research Active Evasion Extended Operations Field Investigation
05  ·  Asset & Property
Asset & Property Location

Identification and verification of real property holdings, vehicle ownership, business interests, and financial assets associated with a subject. Used in divorce, civil judgment enforcement, pre-litigation assessment, and estate matters.

06  ·  Domestic
Missing Person & Family Locate

Discreet, professional location services for families seeking missing relatives, estranged family members, or individuals who have cut contact. Conducted with sensitivity to the circumstances and structured to provide verifiable information without unnecessary escalation.

Missing Relatives Estranged Family Discreet Operations Verified Results

Field-Backed Intelligence

We don't just
search. We find.

The difference between a database report and a confirmed locate is an investigator with boots on the ground. Delator's skip tracing operations are backed by field verification — because the only result that matters is one you can act on.

What You Receive

A location you can
actually use.

Verified results.
Not just data.

Every Delator locate report is built to support immediate action — whether that means service of process, legal filing, judgment enforcement, or a direct approach by counsel.

  • Written locate report with confirmed current address, verification method, and date of confirmation
  • Employer name, address, and confirmation of current employment status where applicable
  • Known vehicle information including make, model, plate, and observed location where obtained through field work
  • Associated addresses, known relatives, and secondary contact points to support follow-up efforts
  • Field observation notes and photographic documentation of confirmed residency or presence where conducted
  • Asset summary identifying real property, business interests, and registered vehicles for enforcement matters
  • Investigator certification available for court filings, affidavits of due diligence, and process server handoff

How It Works

From your request
to a confirmed location.

01
Intake & Subject Profile

You provide what you have — name, last known address, date of birth, or any other identifying information. We assess the difficulty of the locate, the resources required, and the most effective approach before any work begins.

02
Database & Records Research

Our investigators run the subject through proprietary database access, public records, utility histories, property records, court filings, and known associate networks — building a current profile from every available source.

03
Field Verification

Database leads are verified in the field. An investigator physically confirms residency, employment, or subject presence — because a printout from a database is not a confirmed location and we don't deliver one as if it were.

04
Locate Report Delivery

Confirmed findings delivered in a written report with all supporting documentation — formatted for immediate use by counsel, process servers, collection attorneys, or whoever acts on the result next.

No Dead Ends

If they can be found,
we find them.

Every locate starts the same way — with what you have. Delator's investigators have built confirmed locations from a first name and a city. The depth of our field capability means that when standard methods run out, our work is just beginning.

Why Delator

Skip tracing that
goes all the way.

Any service can run a database search. Delator runs the database, then sends an investigator. That combination — analytical research backed by field verification — is what produces locations you can stake a case on.

01
Field Verification Standard

Delator does not deliver unverified database results as confirmed locations. Every locate is either field-verified by an investigator or clearly documented as a database lead requiring confirmation — so you always know what you are acting on.

02
Statewide Network Advantage

Tennessee's largest investigative network means a field investigator can be dispatched to verify a locate anywhere in the state — often same day. No location in Tennessee is outside our confirmation reach.

03
Tradecraft-Rooted Methods

Our investigators bring military and federal law enforcement tradecraft to locate operations — understanding how subjects move, where they surface, and what trails they leave even when they are trying not to. That instinct is not something a database subscription provides.

04
Evasive Subject Capability

When standard locate methods fail — because the subject is using an alias, avoiding financial footprints, or moving frequently — Delator shifts to full investigative mode. We have the field capability to pursue evasive subjects that online services simply cannot touch.

05
Action-Ready Deliverables

Our locate reports are formatted for immediate use — by process servers, collection attorneys, civil litigators, or law enforcement referrals. What we deliver is not a starting point. It is a confirmed result with everything the next step requires already documented.

06
Chain-of-Command Oversight

Every locate operation is supervised through Delator's command structure. Results are reviewed before delivery. Methodology is documented. The quality assurance that governs our surveillance and corporate work applies equally to every skip trace we conduct.
