Why Asset Investigations and Recovery Matter
Unpaid debts, fraudulent transfers, or hidden property can cost businesses and individuals millions. Standard searches often fail to reveal the full picture. That’s where Tristar steps in. Our investigators combine asset tracing, recovery strategies, and financial intelligence to expose concealed wealth and provide actionable evidence.
Asset Recovery Investigation Packages
Every case of asset recovery investigations is different. Some require basic searches like verifying property ownership or Social Security details, while others demand deeper investigations into bank accounts, brokerage holdings, or even offshore assets. That’s why Tristar offers two tiers of asset tracing and recovery services, tailored to match the complexity of your case.
Tier One – Standard Asset Tracing & Recovery
Our Tier One asset recovery investigations are designed to give attorneys, insurers, and businesses a clear financial profile of an individual or company. These searches are ideal for case settlements, due diligence, and judgment recovery efforts.

Why It Matters
Uncovering hidden or misrepresented assets is critical in legal disputes, debt recovery, divorce cases, and corporate litigation. Without accurate asset tracing and recovery, judgments may go unpaid, settlements may be unfair, and fraud can go undetected. Tristar’s asset investigations and recovery services provide attorneys, insurers, and businesses with verified evidence that stands up in court.
By combining public record research, financial tracing, and investigative expertise, we ensure that every search is thorough, lawful, and discreet. Whether it’s confirming property ownership, exposing concealed bank accounts, or identifying offshore holdings, our investigators deliver the clarity needed to make informed legal and financial decisions.
Our Approach to Asset Recovery
Recovering hidden or misappropriated assets requires far more than simple record checks. At Tristar, we combine financial investigations, fieldwork, and advanced research to locate, trace, and recover assets effectively. Our methods are designed to expose concealed holdings, provide court-ready documentation, and support attorneys, insurers, and businesses in complex recovery cases.
Every asset recovery investigation is conducted lawfully and ethically, ensuring findings are credible and admissible. We maintain confidentiality throughout the process to protect client interests while pursuing results.
Our investigators dig deep into public records, property ownership, business filings, bank affiliations, and hidden asset trails. When necessary, we extend our methods to include surveillance, financial tracing, and cross-referenced intelligence that reveals the truth.

No two cases are alike. Whether it’s locating assets in bankruptcy proceedings, uncovering fraudulent transfers, or identifying offshore accounts, our strategies adapt to your unique needs. We provide clear, verifiable findings that empower clients to act with confidence in court or settlement negotiations.
