Typically, attorneys would like to know if there are sufficient assets in the name of the defendant(s) to cover any anticipated judgment. These assets typically include real property such as buildings, houses, land, etc., as well as interests in corporations, partnerships, and other businesses.

Most, if not all, of this information can be retrieved through public records and other resources.

In doing this type of research, pay very close attention to the specific name or names your client is interested in. This may include business names and/or individuals’ names. It is common for attorneys to fail to provide the investigators with the specific and accurate names of the defendants.

CIA can obtain the latest corporate information and credit standings, as well as search for property, judgments, bankruptcy filings, liens, pending suits, UCC filings, corporate structure, partnerships, and watercraft or motor vehicles.
