Can a Process Serving Company Track Bank Accounts?

Amaro Hesen • February 22, 2024

Some process serving companies employ professional investigators who track down people who don’t want to be found. To do so, they gather as much information about those people as possible. A business may choose to use these services, including skip tracing, to find people who fail to pay bills or debt.

What Is Skip Tracing?

Skip tracing is the process of locating hard-to-find individuals, often for legal purposes. This service may target individuals who are behind on debts, must appear in court, or are wanted for criminal activity. 

Skip tracers are professional, experienced investigators with access to in-depth databases and resources that help them find valuable information about people who cannot otherwise be traced. All the following professionals sometimes hire skip tracers to assist investigations related to their fields:

  • Bail bondsmen
  • Debt collectors
  • Journalists
  • Insurance fraud investigators
  • Lawyers
  • Process servers
  • Real estate agencies

What Kinds of Information Does Skip Tracing Discover?

Skip tracing usually begins with an attempt to find the contact information for an unreachable person. Florida skip tracers may research real estate records to find the person’s current address or search internet databases for their email and phone number. Often, skip tracers are able to locate individuals through this initial step. 

If they can’t, they’ll move on to researching any of the following information about the person:

  • Address history
  • Civil court records
  • Credit data
  • Criminal records
  • Deep web data
  • Employment history
  • Social media accounts
  • Tax records

Skip tracers may also contact a person of interest’s family members and friends as part of the investigation. These individuals are often privy to a person’s whereabouts, even when that person is hiding their location from the general public. An individual’s family members may also have ideas about where the person of interest may have gone. 

Do Investigators Track Bank Account Information? 

A licensed Florida Investigator may be hired to research a person’s financial information as part of their investigation. This may include information about their credit report or any bank accounts they recently opened. When investigating people who are behind on their bills or owe a significant amount of debt, identifying recently opened accounts can provide valuable information about the person’s financial activity. 

Licensed Florida investigators may be able to find a person’s bank account information, but this is relatively rare. They’ll use bank account information only to determine your whereabouts. 

Professional Integrity of Licensed Investigators

Licensed Florida investigators operate within the bounds of Florida’s investigative laws. People who hire skip tracers for legal purposes typically choose professionals who show integrity within their searches and only use a person’s private information for tracking purposes. 

Also, licensed Florida investigators don’t investigate for personal reasons. A business cannot hire a skip tracer to track down a family member or friend without a business reason.
