Family Law Intelligence Investigation™ | Attorney-Only Family Law Investigations

Family Law Intelligence Investigation™

Helping Attorneys Uncover Information Relevant to the Best Interests of the Child.

Family law cases often involve more than the parties named in the pleadings. During and after divorce, parentage, guardianship, and custody proceedings, children may be exposed to new romantic partners, household members, caregivers, relatives, or other adults who become part of their daily lives. Family Law Intelligence Investigations offered by Uthe Investigations.

When legitimate concerns arise regarding an individual’s background, attorneys and their clients often need more than a standard database search.

Uthe Investigations & Process Service offers the Family Law Intelligence Investigation™, a comprehensive investigative service designed exclusively for attorneys. This premium investigation combines public records research, criminal history investigations, social media intelligence, court file retrieval, identity analysis, and manual investigative work to uncover information that may be relevant to custody, parenting time, guardianship, and other family law matters.

Because informed decisions matter when children are involved, attorneys sometimes need information that cannot be obtained through a simple online search.

A Comprehensive Family Law Investigation

The Family Law Intelligence Investigation™ goes far beyond a traditional background check.

Our investigators utilize multiple investigative methods and public records sources to identify information that may be relevant to your client’s case, including:

Identity verification and alias research
Historical address research
Criminal history investigations
County-by-county court research
Civil litigation history
Orders of protection research
Manual courthouse file retrieval
Social media intelligence investigations
Public records research
Associated parties research
Property ownership research
Timeline development and investigative reporting

In many cases, individuals may have multiple aliases, different dates of birth, variations of their name, or records spread across numerous jurisdictions. Some records may not appear in a standard database search and may require manual investigation and courthouse research.

Investigations Concerning Adults Who Have Regular Contact with a Child

At the direction of counsel, investigations may be conducted regarding:

Parents
Significant others
Household members
Caregivers
Babysitters
Grandparents
Aunts and uncles
Potential guardians
Adult family members residing in the home
Other adults who may have substantial and unsupervised contact with a child

Our role is to provide attorneys with relevant information that may assist in evaluating circumstances surrounding a child’s welfare and best interests.

When Attorneys Utilize Family Law Intelligence Investigations™

This service may be beneficial in matters involving:

Child custody disputes
Parenting time disputes
Emergency motions
Relocation cases
Guardianship proceedings
Allocation of parental responsibilities
Safety concerns involving individuals with regular access to a child
Credibility issues
High-conflict family law matters
Investigations concerning newly introduced adults in a child’s life

Why a Standard Background Check May Not Be Enough

Many commercially available background checks rely heavily upon databases and automated reporting systems. While these resources can be useful, they often do not tell the entire story.

Information may be missed because:

Records exist in jurisdictions that are not fully digitized.
Individuals have used aliases or name variations.
Records are indexed differently among various counties.
Court files require manual retrieval.
Publicly available online information is overlooked.
Relevant information is spread across multiple jurisdictions.

The Family Law Intelligence Investigation™ is designed to bridge these gaps through professional investigative work and comprehensive public records research.

A Premium Service Designed Exclusively for Attorneys

Family law litigation often involves difficult decisions that affect children and families for years to come. Attorneys need reliable information and professional investigative support to help their clients make informed decisions.

The Family Law Intelligence Investigation™ is offered exclusively to attorneys and law firms and is tailored to the unique needs of family law litigation.

Our investigators work closely with counsel to identify areas of concern, develop investigative strategies, and provide professionally prepared reports that may assist with litigation planning and case evaluation.

Important Information

The Family Law Intelligence Investigation™ is intended to identify publicly available information and information obtained through lawful investigative methods.

This service does not include:

Bank account information
Financial account balances
Cell phone records
Real-time location information
Information requiring a subpoena or court order
Information protected by federal or state privacy laws

No investigation can guarantee that all information will be discovered, nor does Uthe Investigations & Process Service determine whether an individual is “safe” or “unsafe.” Rather, our role is to provide attorneys with information that may be relevant to the issues before the court and the best interests of the child.

Specializing in Hard-to-Serve Cases

Although many assignments are completed quickly, some situations require additional persistence and investigative resources.

Consequently, Uthe Investigations & Process Service offers specialized solutions designed to improve success rates in difficult assignments.

Our agency regularly assists with:

Evasive defendants
Apartment communities
Gated communities
Workplace service attempts
Multiple-address investigations
Rush assignments

Some defendants require more than routine service attempts.

For especially difficult matters, Must Be Served Service combines process service efforts with investigative observation and strategic surveillance designed to maximize opportunities for successful service.

Accordingly, clients gain additional options when conventional service methods prove unsuccessful.

Skip-to-Serve Service

Need to locate someone before service can occur?

As a result, clients receive a streamlined solution designed to locate the individual and complete service as efficiently as possible.

Alias Buster™ – Solving One of the Biggest Problems in Process Service

One of the most common reasons legal matters become delayed is inaccurate or outdated address information. When a defendant, respondent, witness, or tenant no longer resides at the address provided, traditional process service often results in repeated unsuccessful attempts, unnecessary delays, and increased costs.

Alias Buster™ was developed by Uthe Investigations & Process Service to help identify address problems early in the process.

Rather than simply making repeated attempts at an address that may no longer be valid, Alias Buster™ combines professional process service with investigative resources to determine whether better address information may be available before a case stalls.

This proactive approach can help attorneys, landlords, insurance professionals, businesses, and private clients reduce delays while improving the likelihood of successful service.

If your assignment involves questionable address information, ask our office whether Alias Buster™ may be appropriate for your case.

Modern Digital Process Service Workflow

Our digital workflow allows attorneys and legal staff to:

Submit documents electronically
Receive secure online invoices
Make online payments
Receive automatic email updates after each service attempt
Track assignment progress
Receive completed affidavits electronically

This streamlined process reduces unnecessary phone calls, improves transparency, and allows attorneys and legal staff to remain informed from assignment through affidavit completion.
