Services
People Tracing
People Tracing utilises advanced software and licensed data sources to locate individuals for personal, legal, or financial reasons. Our service ensures accuracy through identification analysis and address-linking algorithms. Clients receive detailed reports with verified contact details, supporting reconnections or legal proceedings.
Genealogy Searches
Genealogy Searches reconstruct family trees by tracing birth, death, and marriage records. We help clients discover ancestral roots, locate relatives, and resolve inheritance queries. Our reports integrate historical data with modern databases for comprehensive results.
Asset Searches
Asset Searches identify hidden or undisclosed assets for legal or financial purposes. We employ proprietary tools to trace property, bank accounts, and investments, ensuring clients receive actionable intelligence for debt recovery or litigation.
Overseas Tracing
Overseas Tracing extends our expertise to international cases, leveraging global databases and partnerships. This service supports repatriation, legal compliance, and cross-border investigations, with reports tailored to jurisdictional requirements.
Online Dating Checks
Online Dating Checks verify identities to prevent fraud in digital relationships. We cross-reference social media, financial records, and personal histories to ensure authenticity, offering peace of mind for clients navigating online interactions.

People Location has traced someone I last saw 48 years ago within 2 weeks. Pretty quick I'd say and efficient too in keeping me up to date with developments, mediation on-going at the moment. Well done to Mark and his team.

I can't recommend Mark and the team at People Location enough. After being messed around by 3 other (seemingly good value agents) for the past 6 months, these guys got the job done in a matter of days.

People location have been a reliable and accurate company to deal with. All searches are not only carried out accurately, but they also provide reliable and friendly help and assistance; their success rate with searches I have given them is extremely high and up to date.

Cant thank people Location enough! Im finally back in touch with my family. I never in a million years, thought it would be a possibility! Since contacting your company, I have met up with numerous family members over the past six months. We are planning a family reunion part next month and would be honoured to have your staff that handled the case in attendance. Thank you for all of your tremendous efforts.
