Missing Persons
There are several types of missing persons.
There are those who simply have drifted due to moving or life changes, there are those who deliberately do not want to be found due to skipping out on monetary obligations or crimes, and some missing could be intentional, like parents who gave up their child or children to adoption. There are senior citizens or those adults who might be mentally impaired that wander off from a nursing home or from their own home. There are individuals going through divorce who "kidnap" their own child or children in hopes that they will keep custody of them. Teenagers and children who run away from their homes is also fairly common. Unfortunately there are also those who are victims of crime and are are missing and in conditions unknown.
Buckshot Investigations will enthusiastically work with individuals, law enforcement, and genealogy researchers, and others who are looking for individuals.
It's easy to lose track of people during a lifetime. You move, they move, you change jobs, change schools, get divorced'the reasons are almost endless. Since it can be hard enough finding someone who isn't worried about being found, imagine the difficulty in finding someone who's hiding. The chances of you finding them are easier today with social media and the internet, however, it is not exact and can be very time consuming and at times dangerous, depending on certain circumstances.
Today you can find numerous sites on the internet that say "Click here and find out everything there is to know about you or someone else." BEWARE! There are no sites avaliable that has every piece of information that exists. Also most of these are outdated information containing information that could be several years old and not relevant any longer. Professional Private Investigators literally have thousands of databases and places from which to get the information needed. The general person can find some information that they will pay for on these sites. However what they do not tell you is that most of this data is not current and therefore of little relevance. These sites also do not have good discriminatory capabilities in their searches. How do you know as a user of these sites if the "Jimmy Bob or John Doe" you are looking for is the same as the information they return to you and charge you for?
There are several levels of inquiry to a missing person search. In some cases, such as finding long lost friends, lovers, and relatives who have just drifted away, you may have a fair amount of information about them already, such as last known address and date of birth. For other types of locate searches, you may not have any such vital data or the information you have may be decades old. These cases are more challenging, but they are solvable.
Private Investigators are trained and skilled on determining accurate data. We have access to private and up-to-date data bases that the general public does not. Interpreting them and knowing how to best follow the leads of these search results require special skills that not everyone has.
It is often very simple for professionally trained private investigators to locate missing persons. In many instances, the people considered to be missing have simply moved without notifying everyone they know. When this happens, friends and family can lose touch with one another for years, or even the rest of their lives. Most people do not know where to start searching if the lost friends they are seeking are not listed in the White Pages. Here at Buckshot Investigations we have investigators who can potentially locate the missing person you are searching for quickly.

Adopted children grow up with questions that can only be answered by their biological parents. Simply knowing about a biological parent's medical history can provide information that could prove to be vital to an adopted child's overall physical well-being. Many times attorneys will need to find a debtor who owes them or their client money. If the person you need to find had a history of excessive debt or difficulty repaying money loaned to him, he or she may have fled their normal life. People who flee from debt or the law often leave a very small paper trail, knowing that any documentation of their whereabouts could lead to arrest or captivity by their creditors. These are sometimes known as skips. Skip tracing a debtor is especially challenging because in most cases they are intentionally trying to cover their tracks and stay hidden. One way they game the system is to use false names. They also associate these false assumed names with bogus Social Security numbers or those that are real through identity theft. However they are often careless and unimaginative in their use of these and private investigators have skills and knowledge that can be used to figure out the patterns and methods of these individuals and track them down.
