Alias Buster™ | Illinois Skip Trace & Process Service Solution
Bad Address? Let’s Fix It Before Your Case Stalls.
One of the most common reasons legal cases slow down is simple: the address is wrong. Alias Buster Illinois may be the answer your firm is looking for.
An attorney files a lawsuit, eviction, probate matter, guardianship case, family law action, or other legal proceeding and provides the defendant’s last known address. Service attempts begin, only to discover the defendant no longer lives there. Alias Buster Illinois helps to keep the case moving without repeated Alias Summons.
Now the attorney, landlord, business, or client faces a new problem.
Should additional attempts be made?
Should a skip trace be ordered?
Is a new address available?
How much time will be lost before the next step can be taken?
Uthe Investigations & Process Service created Alias Buster™ to help attorneys, law firms, landlords, property managers, and businesses address this problem quickly and efficiently.
How Alias Buster™ Works
Alias Buster™ begins as a traditional process service assignment.
- First Step
We attempt service at the address provided by the client.
- Second Step
If service is successful, the assignment proceeds normally and no additional action is necessary.
- Third Step
If our investigation determines the address is no longer valid, Alias Buster™ activates.
- Fourth Step
Our agency conducts a professional skip trace and address investigation to identify a potentially more current address for the defendant or respondent.
- Fifth Step
Once a viable address is identified, service efforts continue at the newly developed location.
Rather than stopping after discovering a bad address, Alias Buster™ is designed to help keep the service process moving forward.
Why Attorneys Use Alias Buster™
Attorneys often encounter situations where:
Defendants have moved
Tenants have relocated
Respondents are using outdated addresses
Probate heirs cannot be located
Family law parties are avoiding service
Businesses have changed locations
Previous addresses are no longer valid
Without a plan, these situations frequently result in delays, additional administrative work, and uncertainty regarding the next steps.
Alias Buster™ combines process service and skip tracing into a single coordinated solution designed to identify address problems early and provide attorneys with additional information as quickly as possible.
Designed for Law Firms, Landlords, and Businesses
Alias Buster™ is frequently used in:
Civil Litigation
When a defendant cannot be located at the address provided.
Family Law Matters
A spouse, parent, or respondent has relocated or is difficult to locate.
Probate Cases
Heirs, beneficiaries, or interested parties must be located and served.
Guardianship Proceedings
When notice recipients cannot be found at the address provided.
Landlord-Tenant Matters
Tenants vacate, abandon property, or provide outdated contact information.
Insurance Subrogation Matters
Successful subrogation actions often depend on locating and serving responsible parties quickly and accurately. When a defendant has moved, provided outdated address information, or cannot be located at the address initially provided, valuable time can be lost while recovery efforts stall. Alias Buster™ combines professional process service with skip tracing and address development resources designed to identify better address information and keep subrogation matters moving forward. This service is particularly valuable for insurance carriers, self-insured entities, third-party administrators, and subrogation law firms seeking efficient recovery solutions.

The defendant recently moved
Client is uncertain whether the address is current
Time is important and delays may impact case progression
