Missing Persons Investigations
Finding People Others Can’t. Answers When It Matters Most.
At The Objective Wire, we specialize in locating missing persons through a combination of proven investigative techniques, database access, and field intelligence. Whether you’re searching for a lost loved one, a witness who disappeared, someone intentionally avoiding contact, or just seeking closure on a long unanswered question—we help bring people back into view.
As a licensed private detective agency in Austin, Texas, we handle a wide range of missing persons cases with discretion, persistence, and sensitivity. Some cases involve reconnecting families. Others involve recovering assets, serving legal process, or resolving legal matters in civil or probate court. No matter the reason, we treat every case with urgency, professionalism, and care.
Our team uses a strategic blend of skip tracing, in-person canvassing, digital footprint tracking, and advanced proprietary databases not available to the public. In many cases, we’re able to find individuals who have changed addresses, assumed new identities, or gone off-grid intentionally. Unlike public search tools or generic people-finder apps, our investigations go deeper—often uncovering activity across states, social networks, employer records, utility databases, and more.
Common scenarios we investigate include runaway teens, estranged family members, birth parents, missing heirs, debtors avoiding collection, tenants who vanish without notice, and defendants who fail to appear in court. In time-sensitive cases involving possible danger or mental health concerns, we act quickly and discreetly, and when appropriate, work in parallel with law enforcement to provide support and leads they may not have.
For legal professionals and families dealing with probate, child custody, or estate matters, locating a person can make or break a case. We produce clear, detailed reports that include current address confirmations, contact information, timeline of movement, and supporting documentation—everything you need to proceed legally and confidently.
Based in Austin, our investigators have deep knowledge of the Central Texas region, but we also maintain a trusted national network that allows us to take on cases across state lines. Whether the trail leads to another city or across the country, we don’t stop until we exhaust every option.
If you’re looking for someone—and standard channels haven’t worked—it may be time to bring in a professional. We’re here to help you find who you’re missing.
