Witnesses, Beneficiaries and Debtors.
We at Trace and Identify (Australia) have located many witnesses, beneficiaries and large $$$ debtors within Australia as well as for the U.S., U.K. N.Z. & U.A.E. during the thirteen years we have been in business in the State of Queensland, Australia.
- Witnesses – We have at times been requested to track and trace, then confirm, the current location of a witness who was needed to testify in a court case. Witnesses are needed to be found for many reasons, including accidents, embezzlement cases, bashings, etc. etc.
- Beneficiaries – Probate wills and estates are legally binding documents that determine how your property will be distributed upon death. Probate is the legal process through which an executor distributes assets according to the deceased’s wishes. The Executor will be given a list of all beneficiaries and if they have not all been identified, located, and contacted within the expiry date, the missing beneficiary’s share is usually put into a Trust.
If a beneficiary cannot be found by the Executor within the expiry date, the solicitor may inform the Executor of the Will that possibly a Private Investigator can assist. This is where Trace and Identify (Australia) excel at what they do. Lesley Craig has personally located many missing beneficiaries for law firms within Australia and for companies in the U.S. and the U.K.
- Debtors – When an individual is owed a relatively small amount of money (for instance up to $20,000) it is recommended that they approach the Small Claims Court to put in a claim and the Small Claims Court will sort it for the client, however, if all available avenues are exhausted, and for the debts more than $20,000, it is recommended that the individual approach a solicitor at a reputable law firm and they in turn usually contract a Private Investigator to become involved to track and trace the person who owes the client that debt.
