Pre-litigation asset searches can offer insight into the financial standing of the person you are looking to sue. Before you invest time and money in bringing a civil

suit, it would be nice to know if the suit will bring you any closer to obtaining the money you seek.

During the litigation process Asset searches, can determine tangible assets that are in an individual’s name which can be watched in order to make sure the debtor will not attempt to move these assets to avoid them from being collected upon.

Finally, post litigation Asset searches can identify collectible assets and also make determinations if the debtor made attempts to conceal their assets to avoid detection.

We identify tangible assets like homes, vehicles, boats, businesses, and more and provide you with information about liens on these assets. We will also search for other outstanding liabilities to determine where our clients would fit “in line” should they seek to collect upon assets. These liabilities include tax liens, foreclosures, other civil lawsuits and criminal activity that led to outstanding fines on the part of your debtor.

Knowing the whole story can save you thousands in legal fees. Whether you determine the lawsuit would be unfruitful or you have a judgment and want to make sure you use your money effectively to collect upon the assets located. Once we find assets owned by your debtor, you can quickly move to collect rather than waiting years for the court to take action to collect your money.

Common Asset Search Questions

What is a Michigan asset search?

Michigan asset search is an investigation conducted with the primary goal of determining if a person, family or entity holds any tangible assets, or recently sold any tangible assets that may show an attempt to hide their assets. We also identify any outstanding liabilities that entity may have. Sometimes an asset search will show that a person not only has no assets, but also shows that other creditors are already trying to collect against time.

Why would I need to hire ASG to run an asset search?

Generally, asset searches are conducted for three different purposes. The first is to determine if someone you are looking to sue has any tangible assets that would give you a better chance to collect on a judgment. The second is when you have already been awarded a judgment in a lawsuit and you are attempting to collect on the judgment. The final scenario is when you believe that an individual is attempting to hide or shelter their assets and you need proof to show that they are doing this.

What types of assets are included in an asset search?

I had an asset search in Michigan run, but I don’t know what all of the information means?

An asset search will identify the real estate, motor vehicles, watercraft and aircraft owned by an individual. Sometimes an asset search report can be difficult to understand, but a good investigator should provide some details and a summary in their report that should be very understandable. The investigation will also include outstanding liabilities held by an individual that may point to additional individuals who are also looking to collect from the entity. Looking at the totality of the assets held by an entity versus the amount of outstanding liabilities can offer some insight into the likelihood of being able to collect from or settle a lawsuit against them.

Can I get bank account information through an asset search?

In certain instances, bank account locations can be garnered as part of an asset search. The first scenario is when a judgment is already in place and a copy of that judgment is provided. The second is in the instance of someone’s death; the power of attorney, guardian or executor of an estate can search for bank accounts providing they have proof of death and proof of their position in connection with the decedent.
It should be noted that bank account numbers and balance information is not available, and these searches are allowed only to point an individual to a banking institution that holds accounts for the subject of the asset search.
