Background Checks

A businessman bought an area of land in a rural area of England and began legitimate business on it. He wanted to build a house on the land, as he was legally entitled to do. Planning permission became difficult and a cabal of influential locals formed up against him.

Private Investigators UK were tasked to find out if there was any connection between some of the protesters, investigate the most capable of them and establish what their intentions were and how successful they had been.  Background checks by Private Investigators UK provided detailed reports on the protestors, their backgrounds, the relationships between them, their intentions and corporate business links between significant figures. 

Background Check

A man in the UK wanted to buy a property in Greece. He had been dealing with a Greek, described as a lawyer. He appeared knowledgeable but, was he a real lawyer and was he in fact empowered to act in Greek law? Could Private Investigators UK help? Checks revealed that he was a bona fide, registered and qualified lawyer with a good reputation acting in good faith. 

Missing Persons Germany

Private investigators in Germany needed to find the address of a German who had fled to a Latin American country, taking with him valuables which did not belong to him. Private Investigators UK were able to find the German in Chile where attempts were made to persuade him to accept a partial solution.  

Missing Persons England

A chartered accountant in England wanted to find a former client who had disappeared without paying them. They had contacted the man's wife, who assured them that he was living in the Philippines.

The client was informed of his address in the Philippines and the address where he would shortly appear to visit his daughter in England.

An American academic got to know a young woman secretary while serving with the US embassy in Rome in 1956. All he knew was her (then) name. Private Investigators UK found the woman, provided her present address and put them in touch. 

Background Check

An American couple wanted to find out more about their daughter's prospective English husband. Had he graduated from a prestigious university in England?

Background checks showed he was of good character and reputation.
