While some of our legal clients are familiar with what skip tracing is and what it can do, most do not fully understand just how many types of missing people the skip tracers at our private investigation agency can use it for to locate missing people. From adults to kids, our skip trace service is low-cost, quick, and extremely versatile. Our legal team has been helping clients worldwide for decades find their missing loved ones, and we will happily help you as well!

Skip Tracing to Locate These Types of Missing People:

Some people go missing for a wide variety of reasons, and most people do not know what to do or how to locate them. Since police and other law enforcement assistance is often slipshod at best and is something they often only reserve for legal cases that involve criminal matters. Thus, many people opt to hire a missing person private investigator to help them find others they want to locate. The following is a partial list of people that our private investigation agency can assist with the location of:

Runaway & Abducted Children:

One of the biggest requests we receive for our skip tracing services that we offer is to find runaway children and those who have become victims of parental kidnapping. Attempting to locate missing kids is one of the most heart wrenching types of private investigations our agency does. Indeed, most of our investigators here have children of their own, and they know all too well how they would feel if even one of them suddenly went missing for any reason.

When kids run away, we must skip trace the adults they are staying with to locate them. So, if they go to the home of a friend who is also a minor, our firm will skip trace the parents of the underage friend they are with. This is because the kid’s friend, younger than age eighteen, will not have any utilities or other registrations in their name which will link them back to the residence.

When parental kidnapping occurs, our parental abduction private detective will run the skip trace on the parent, stepparent, or grandparent who absconded with the child. Our runaway teen private investigator notes once again that, because kids are not yet of legal age, they will not have utilities, vehicles, or other location-revealing information about them in our special system yet.

It may take some time for the results to show up, especially if the adults just recently fled to a new address. However, between social media scans and our skip trace service, we can usually find the best new address at some point. We have been doing this for decades and promise to take amazing care of you and your missing children and teens. The staff at our private detective agency in Oklahoma will do everything we can to try to bring your kids back home safely.

Missing Senior Citizens:

When grandma or grandpa go wandering out and never come back, it raises serious alarm bells in the hearts and minds of many people. Many communities in the USA and elsewhere send out special alerts to law enforcement and the public called silver alerts, in hopes of raising the level of urgency and mobilizing more community members to be on the lookout to help bring them home quicker.   

While a skip trace might not help find them if they left due to dementia or Alzheimer’s and are just wandering around town at a ghetto store like Walmart, skip tracing is appropriate in other circumstances. Not every elderly person is of unsound mind and thus leaves the area without realizing it. 

For missing senior private investigations due to dementia and Alzheimer’s, our private eyes will use surveillance, will review video camera footage, will track cell phones, will go to the missing seniors’ last known and favorite locations, and will interview community members and law enforcement personnel. Our legal team has many tricks up its sleeves which have significant investigative value in locating missing senior citizens.

Some older people leave home on purpose. They may be seeking a new life, or they may flee to escape abusive kids and grandchildren who are threatening to put them in a nursing home and who only want their inheritance sooner. Elderly individuals may also flee domestic violence, or they may decide they can no longer stand living in a conservative hellhole like Oklahoma and instead move to Burlington, Vermont. 

When senior citizens leave the area on purpose, it can happen for a wide variety of reasons as we noted above. Skip tracing is something that our missing senior private investigator can have some success with in cases like this, unlike when they randomly begin wandering around due to mental infirmities. However, it may take some time for their new address to show up, because it will happen when they get new utilities, register their vehicle, pay taxes and list their new address, get a new driver’s license, etc.                                                                                                                                                     

Long-Lost Friends from High School, University, etc.:

Some of our clients are looking to reconnect with classmates from high school, their college/university years, or even co-workers they knew a long time ago. We do not mind helping with this, provided there is no stalking involved. Many people cannot find these individuals, because over time people move, change their names, and not everyone posts their entire lives all over social media. Thus, when nostalgia sets in and our clients need help from our legal professionals, most of the time we can assist them.

If the person has blocked out our client’s number, if they have sexual offense convictions, or if the individual has a lawful restraining order out against them by a court of jurisdiction, then we will not help locate these missing people with our skip trace services. Our private investigation agency in OKC. We do not condone stalking, and our stalker private investigators are hypervigilant about potential clients who are stalkers wanting to hunt down their prey. 

Old Flames/Previous Lovers – No Stalkers Though!:

Old flames and former romantic partners are also people we are willing to help our clients locate. Sometimes after time passes, people may indeed want to reconnect and rekindle their previous passion. However, we do this very judiciously and with extreme discretion. Once again, we must ensure that no one who hires us does so with any intention of stalking, and if we believe at any time that clients have hired us for this reason we will cease all services and will not provide refunds.

Adults Adopted Out as Kids Who Are Now Seeking Their Biological Family:

Our private detective agency near me also gets tons of calls from clients seeking their long-lost family. From half siblings to birth parents and more, adults who underwent closed adoptions as kids often want to find their birth parents and vice versa. Yes, we get plenty of requests from birth parents wanting to find babies they let someone else adopt through a closed adoption many years ago. We will gladly assist with these types of requests, because after age eighteen the kids, siblings, cousins, and parents alike have every right to reconnect with their other missing biological family members.

This issue hits particularly close to home for one of the owners of our PI agency, Dr. Tinsley Ariana Taylor Makayla Saramosing (formerly Keefe). This is because she was an extremely popular, attractive sperm donor prior to her gender transition while living in Oklahoma, and as such she now technically has over fifty children who may one day come looking for her. 

They will even read this page seeking to hire the best missing parent private detective to run a skip trace on Dr. Makayla Keefe to help them be able to contact her. Indeed, if any of her donor kids ever read this page, you my freely contact me and I will also help put you into contact with your other siblings, if you want. 

Wanted Criminals/Criminal Suspects:

Skip tracing is also surprisingly useful for tracking down defendants who are out on bond who have run away from their bail bondsman in Oklahoma. Bail jumping is yet another crime the government can charge them with, as defendants who skip out on their bonds and fail to appear for court cause their bail bondsmen in OKC huge headaches, nonetheless. 

Indeed, if the bondsman does not pay the full amount of the bond within ninety days, they can face license revocation and can suffer the abrupt loss of their jobs. But wait, because it gets worse.

Even if the Oklahoma bail bondsman pays the entire amount of the bond within ninety days of the date the defendant failed to appear for court, if the defendant does not return to custody within one year, the bondsman loses the entire amount of the bond regardless of whether the defendant returns to custody at a jail or prison facility even one day thereafter.

Law enforcement personnel also extensively use similar systems to track down wanted criminals who have absconded from custody. From the U.S. Marshals to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and more, police officers will go to great lengths to recover missing fugitives. These law enforcement agencies (LEAs) have been around for many years and will stop at nothing to return criminals to custody behind bars.

Our criminal private investigators also try to help find wanted criminals. When crimes occur and police are too busy or disinterested in helping victims of criminal offenses, our private investigation agency in Oklahoma City can help find missing criminals and will help bring justice to the victims of violent and non-violent crimes alike. Our skip trace service is inexpensive, quick to run, and highly accurate.

Civil Lawsuit Defendants That Process Servers Need to Locate to Serve Court Documents to:

Our process servers at our Oklahoma private investigation agency also use skip trace services on a regular basis to help find defendants in civil court cases they are trying to serve. Skip tracing is one of the fastest, easiest ways to locate new addresses these individuals may have fled to, and yet some law firms are cheap and hire the newest, least experienced process servers who have no idea what skip traces are and who completely lack the ability to run them.

Clients Wanting to Find Their Own Personal Address History:

When applicants apply for new jobs or for visas for their overseas future spouses, they will sometimes need to list all their previous residential addresses. Our process servers and private investigators can help clients who are seeking this information about themselves find it quickly and cheaply.

Surveillance as a Complementary Option to Locate a Missing Person: 

Surveillance private investigations are also a secondary option which can complement our skip trace services. Once our licensed private detective finds the best new address for a missing individual, if our client does not want us to go up and serve them or otherwise confront them yet, we can instead conduct surveillance private investigations to try to confirm their identity and monitor their movements, if the client desires. Indeed, surveillance has plenty of use in our legal field, so ask us how we can use it to help you solve your legal case.
