Find someone's current address in Portsmouth. Pay only when we do.
Trace Bureau traces people who were last known in Portsmouth or anywhere in Hampshire, and people who have moved away from it. Portsmouth has a dense, fast-changing rental market, which is exactly the kind of movement that leaves a trail across more than 150 sources, registers and records. A person cross-references that trail and you are charged only when we deliver a current address.
How tracing works for Portsmouth instructions
The process is the same wherever the person is. What changes is the court you will be dealing with afterwards, and we write the report with that in mind.
You tell us who and why
Full legal name plus a date of birth or a previous address, often the last PO address you had. Then the reason: money owed, proceedings, a tenancy, an estate, a lost relative. We record the lawful basis.
We trace across the whole UK
People do not stay inside Hampshire. Our sources are national, so a person who left Portsmouth for the other end of the country is found the same way as one who moved two streets.
You get a report built for Portsmouth Combined Court Centre
For service, a claim or enforcement, the report gives the address, our confidence rating, the categories of record checked and the dates, so it stands up if it is questioned.
