Our team at YAPI is skilled in locating witnesses for legal cases. We use a variety of techniques:

• Database & Public Record Searches: Accessing voter registrations, property records, vehicle records, and credit histories to find current contact information.
• Digital Investigations (OSINT): Utilizing social media platforms (Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.) to identify connections, locations, and online footprints.
• Neighborhood Canvassing: Systematically interviewing neighbors, local business owners, or bystanders near the incident scene to gather information.
• Surveillance: Monitoring locations, including workplaces or previous residences, to confirm the witness’s whereabouts and identity.
• Background Checks & Information Gathering: Reviewing financial transactions, employment records, or other available data to trace movements.
• Interviews: Directly interviewing associates or acquaintances who may know the person’s current location. 

• Skip Tracing: Utilizing specialized, advanced tools and databases to locate individuals who are difficult to find.
• Locating Resistant People: Employing discreet surveillance for individuals intentionally avoiding contact.
• Handling Transient People: Researching lower-socioeconomic, frequently moving, or unbanked individuals using unconventional data sources.
