Live Locate & Background Session (1 Hour)
Work directly with licensed private investigator Marc Hinch in a real-time, one-hour session. Together we’ll develop leads, identify good service addresses, and check county court records connected to your subject while you’re on the line.
Book Your SessionHow your live session works
Instead of waiting days for a static background report, you and I work the case together in real time. As new addresses, counties, or records show up, we shift the search instantly and make decisions on the spot.
1. You book your hour and complete a short intake
You pick an available one-hour slot, pay the $125 fee, and answer a few quick questions about:
- Who you’re trying to find (name, DOB/age, last known city/state)
- Why you’re searching (process service, civil case, personal, etc.)
- What you’re hoping to learn during the session
2. We connect by phone or Zoom
At the appointment time, we’ll quickly confirm the details and then get straight to work. I’ll share what I’m seeing as I go so you understand why certain addresses or records matter.
3. Live locate & court record searches
During the session, I may:
- Search professional-grade databases and public records tied to your subject
- Identify prior addresses and counties you didn’t know about
- Check public county court records for criminal and civil cases involving your subject
If we find, for example, that your subject used to live in a different county, we can immediately pivot and search that county’s court system while we’re still on the call.
4. Clear recap and next steps
Before we wrap up, I’ll review what we found—addresses, court cases, or other key data—and help you prioritize what’s most useful for your situation, such as:
- Best address candidates for service attempts
- Relevant court cases or filings to pull copies of
- Options if additional investigative work is needed beyond this session
Ideal clients for a live locate
- Process servers and attorneys needing good, current service addresses
- Self-represented litigants trying to locate a party or witness
- Victims of fraud or theft wanting to understand someone’s history
- Small businesses or professionals needing context on a person (non-FCRA use)
Information that makes your hour go further
- Full legal name and any known aliases
- Date of birth or approximate age
- Last known city and state
- Known phone numbers, emails, or social media profiles
- Names of relatives or associates (if known)
- Any related documents: prior orders, police reports, or existing addresses
What I can and cannot do in this session
I can:
- Use professional tools and public records to develop solid leads
- Identify likely service addresses and relevant jurisdictions
- Search county court records where appropriate
- Explain what the records mean in plain language
I cannot:
- Guarantee a successful locate in a single hour
- Provide legal advice or tell you what you “should” do legally
- Provide FCRA-compliant reports for employment or tenant screening
- Access sealed, expunged, or otherwise non-public records
