NSW GovernmentWhat is a locate investigation?
Facts, gathered lawfully. A written report you can act on.
People drop off the grid for all sorts of reasons. Some by choice, some by circumstance. Our investigators use database searches, social media intelligence, and public records to locate individuals across Australia.
We work efficiently and discreetly, minimising unnecessary cost while maximising the likelihood of a positive result. To start a locate, we need their full name (first and last name). We also offer phone number reverse searches, where we can identify the name and address associated with a phone number. Useful for debt recovery, personal matters, and due diligence. All searches are conducted lawfully, within Australian privacy legislation, and results are delivered in a professional written report, prepared to a standard suited to legal proceedings.

Real results, real clients
Beneficiary located in three days. Estate able to proceed.
A Sydney solicitor needed to locate a beneficiary for a deceased estate. The individual had moved interstate and broken contact with family over a decade earlier, and the estate could not be finalised until they were found.
Using name-based database searches, cross-referenced with electoral records and other lawful sources, our investigators located the beneficiary in Western Australia within three business days.
The address was verified before anything was reported, so the solicitor could rely on it for formal correspondence. The whole matter was handled without any contact being made with the beneficiary, and without the family being involved.
A verified address report was delivered to the solicitor, allowing the estate to proceed to settlement without delay.
Case details anonymised for client confidentiality.
FAQ
Your questions, answered.
How much information do I need to start a locate search?
A full name and approximate age is the minimum we need. Additional information - last known suburb, date of birth, previous address, or phone number - increases the speed and accuracy of results. Even difficult cases can be resolved with limited starting information.
How long does a locate search take?
A standard address search typically returns results within 1-5 business days. Complex cases or individuals who have deliberately hidden their whereabouts may take longer. We keep you updated throughout.
Is it legal to locate someone without their knowledge?
Yes, within the bounds of Australian privacy law. Our searches use publicly available and licensed database information. We do not conduct unlawful surveillance or access private communications. Stirling holds an active NSW licence.
What if the person doesn't want to be found?
This is more complex but not impossible. Success rates are lower but still significant.
Can you locate someone overseas?
Our primary capability is within Australia. International locates are assessed case-by-case and may be referred to trusted overseas partners.
What happens with the information once I receive it?
All personal information gathered during the investigation is handled in strict accordance with Australian privacy legislation. It is delivered only to the instructing client and not shared with any third party.
