Debtor Tracing


We provide a high quality, bespoke debtor tracing service that is utilised by a host of diverse clients across the UK. This nationwide tracing service uses a combination of traditional investigative techniques combined with the latest technological advances to identify absconded individuals swiftly and efficiently. Every year we help companies just like yours to locate and pursue difficult debtors, secure the return of unpaid goods or enforce a County Court Judgment.

Every year millions of pounds worth of goods or services are written off because debtors “disappear” leaving no forwarding address or contact details. Our experienced tracing agents have the knowledge and experience to locate your debtor and allow you to begin the process of debt recovery.

Our tracing services are a low cost, fixed fee alternative to expensive private investigations and we have the experience, flexibility and facilities to return a positive match in a significant majority of cases. It is our experience that it is extremely difficult for debtors to completely disappear leaving absolutely no trace. Our team of dedicated tracing experts use the latest available software combined with more traditional investigative techniques to trace individuals or businesses across the length and breadth of the United Kingdom.

From large multinational to SME, your business simply cannot afford to write off debts clients are refusing to pay. When you combine our debtor tracing and Debt Recovery services you can be sure that we will always be actively searching to secure your monies.

CCJ Searches


We will undertake a search to obtain a copy of any County Court or High Court Judgment against a company or individual in any part of Great Britain.

The search is made in the registers of the Registry Trust for England & Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, Isle of Man and Jersey. The Registry of Fines applies to England & Wales.

The search will show all money judgments and administration orders registered by the County courts or High courts for the past six years. The information provided includes:

The original amount of the judgment.
The name of the court.
The date of judgment.

There may also be (depending on the Register):

A case number.
Details of satisfaction (payment in full).

A Safe Collections CCJ search is very useful in cases where you are considering legal action against a Partnership or Sole Trader. If the debtor in question already has a number of unsatisfied judgments it may not always be financially prudent to secure another.

Land Registry Searches
Our Land Registry search will reveal the current owners of any registered property in England & Wales, sourced officially from the HM Land Registry.

A typical Land Registry search will reveal the full names and addresses of the property owners, official purchase date, details of any mortgages or charges against the property. If the property was sold after January 1999, a Land Registry search will also contain the exact purchase price.

Searches are conducted to order, to ensure that our Land Registry search provides you with the most of the up to date information registered with HM Land Registry.

If you are considering using a Charging Order to secure a County Court Judgment against a debtor's property an up to date Land Registry search should always be your starting point.

If you require any of the services above why not contact us and one of our experienced and friendly staff who will be more than happy to discuss your needs.
