Our investigators possess any licenses necessary and are members of professional organisations; for example, the Association of British Investigators (ABI). We stay on top of new laws and regulations governing privacy, data protection (GDPR) and surveillance, so all our work is lawful.

At Adley Barton, we provide several professional services and debtor tracing and debt recovery are among our core services. We know how incredibly frustrating it is to have an unpaid debt. Our expert detectives trace bank accounts, properties, vehicles, and other assets potentially available for recovery. We scour them for their current addresses of people who moved to avoid their dues.

After we track down the debtor and their assets, we work with you or your lawyer to figure out the best recovery approach. Even though we are not able to collect debts, our investigations provide necessary information for debt recovery.
