Many search companies conduct simple database searches and supply their clients with long lists of names and addresses for them to sort through and call.
Results are often unsuccessful.
Although there are many capable and knowledgeable private investigators available, most are not search specialists and have limited tools and techniques to find people. Whereabouts specializes in providing a confirmed present point of contact for missing persons, adoptees and birthparents worldwide. We use state of the art database tools, combined with elaborate pretext techniques, worldwide networking, and people skills. Many of our clients are private investigators requesting help. We have ways of identifying and locating people with very little information to start.
