Background & Asset Investigation Services in Coral Gables
STRUCTURED RESEARCH INTELLIGENCE ACROSS FOUR CORE DISCIPLINES.
Background Screening
Comprehensive background investigations covering criminal history, civil litigation records, employment verification, financial history, and reputational analysis. Structured for attorneys, corporate counsel, and private parties who need an accurate picture before making a critical decision.
Asset Searches & Identification
We locate real estate holdings, bank accounts, business interests, vehicles, vessels, and other financial assets, including those deliberately transferred or concealed. Our asset investigations are used for pre-litigation strategy, settlement valuation, and post-judgment enforcement.
Skip Tracing & Locates
When a witness, defendant, heir, debtor, or opposing party has gone dark, our skip tracing operations identify confirmed current location, employment, and contact information. We deploy field verification where database results alone are insufficient.
Due Diligence Investigations
Pre-transaction and pre-partnership intelligence for corporate counsel, business owners, and high-net-worth individuals. We verify credentials, surface undisclosed liabilities, identify prior litigation, and deliver structured reports before your client commits.

We Go Beyond the Database
Public records are a starting point. They are not a complete answer.
Wasser's research operations combine advanced investigative databases, proprietary source networks, and field verification to surface what online searches and basic record pulls miss, including concealed asset transfers, undisclosed business interests, confirmed current locations, and credibility factors that alter the value of a case.
Every report is structured for immediate use by your legal team. What that means in practice:
- Asset investigations that follow the money through transfers and shell structures
- Skip tracing with field-verified location confirmation, not just database addresses
- Background reports organized by case element, not a raw data dump
- Due diligence structured to your specific risk and decision threshold
Before You File, Know What You Can Recover
One of the most expensive mistakes in civil litigation is winning a judgment against a party with nothing to collect.
A pre-litigation asset investigation answers the questions that determine your strategy: Does this party have real property? Active accounts? Business holdings? Or a history of transferring assets ahead of legal exposure?
That intelligence changes whether you file, how you settle, and what enforcement looks like after judgment.

How a Research Investigation Works
Case Intelligence Briefing
We begin with a confidential consultation to define the subject, the scope of the research, and what your decision depends on. Objective-driven research produces better results than broad data pulls.
Database & Records Research
We access investigative databases, court records, property filings, business registrations, financial records, and open-source intelligence to construct an accurate picture of the subject's assets, history, and current status.
Field Verification
Where database results require confirmation, including current address, employment, physical asset location, or subject identity, we deploy field investigators to verify findings before they appear in your report.
Structured Report Delivery
Findings are delivered in organized, court-ready format. Asset reports identify holdings by category. Background reports are structured by case element. All findings are documented with supporting source data.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you find hidden bank accounts in Coral Gables?
Yes, in strict compliance with the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA). We utilize specialized financial investigators and lawful methods to identify active banking relationships, brokerage accounts, and safe deposit boxes to support court orders, judgments, and legal discovery.
How is this different from an online background check?
Online background checks scrape outdated public databases and frequently return false positives or miss sealed records. Our Coral Gables investigators manually verify court records, cross-reference data points, and utilize proprietary intelligence networks unavailable to the general public.
How long does a comprehensive asset search take?
Turnaround times vary based on the complexity of the subject's financial footprint. Standard background and due diligence checks can be completed within a few days, while complex corporate and financial asset searches involving multiple jurisdictions typically take one to two weeks.
