What is Asset Investigation?
Asset investigation is the work of identifying a debtor's collectible assets, bank accounts, employment, real property, vehicles, business interests, accounts receivable, retirement funds. Without knowing where the assets are, judgment enforcement is paper. Investigation tools include public records searches, debtor examinations, third-party records demands, and skip tracing.
When you might need this service
- You have a judgment but do not know where the debtor's assets are.
- Pre-suit, you want to evaluate whether a debtor is collectible before committing to litigation costs.
- A debtor is claiming inability to pay and you want to verify the claim before negotiating down.
- A debtor is suspected of hiding or transferring assets to defeat collection.
How Sari Law Firm helps
We run skip tracing through commercial databases, search public records (real property, business filings, vehicle registrations, UCC-1s), conduct judgment debtor examinations under oath, issue third-party subpoenas to banks and employers, and trace asset transfers when fraudulent-conveyance recovery is on the table. Findings drive the enforcement strategy.
Predictable timelines, transparent pricing
Most asset investigation engagements follow a clear path. We give you the timeline and the price in writing before the work begins, so you can plan with confidence.
