Private investigators use asset investigations to find out, confirm, and assess a person's or company's financial situation. It's important to know what someone owns if you're in a lawsuit, trying to get back a debt, trying to settle a divorce, or checking the financial credibility of a business partner. Asset investigations go beyond what you can see; they dig deep to find hidden properties, bank accounts, business interests, and other valuable resources that a person or organisation might not want to share.
