Missing Person Cases We Review
- Missing adults: unexplained loss of contact or uncertainty about someone’s current whereabouts.
- Estranged family members: efforts to reconnect after an extended period without reliable contact.
- Missing visitors: travelers whose last confirmed activity involved Las Vegas or surrounding communities.
- Runaway cases: requests reviewed according to the circumstances and information available.
- Unresolved leads: possible addresses, associates, or locations requiring further investigation.
Each case begins with an assessment. A recent disappearance, a long-standing family separation, and a search based on an outdated address can require different resources and investigative approaches.
If someone may be in immediate danger, call 911. Contact the appropriate law enforcement agency to report a disappearance. A private investigation does not replace an emergency response. See the LVMPD missing persons information for local reporting guidance.
How We Investigate a Missing Person Case
Review the Last Confirmed Contact
We begin with what is known: when the person was last seen or heard from, where they were, who they were with, and what happened next. Recent photographs, messages you lawfully possess, previous addresses, vehicle details, known associates, and travel information can help establish a starting point.
Research and Verify Leads
Investigative databases and public records may identify possible addresses, associations, or other useful information. We assess the age and reliability of those records and determine which leads need further verification. A database result alone does not establish someone’s current location.
Follow Up in the Field
When a credible lead points to a residence, business, hotel, or other location, field investigation may help determine whether it is current. Depending on the assignment, this can include location checks, follow-up on available information, and surveillance to document relevant activity. Staffing is based on the locations, timing, access, and objectives involved.
Explain Findings and Next Steps
We explain which leads have been checked, what the findings support, and what remains unresolved. As new information develops, we discuss appropriate next steps and any changes to the agreed scope or budget.

Leads may involve hotels, extended-stay properties, apartment communities, residential neighborhoods, or movement between cities. Our local field experience helps us assess those locations and plan follow-up around the information available.

Questions About Hiring a Missing Person Investigator
What information should I have ready?
Provide the person’s full name, approximate age or date of birth if known, recent photographs, physical description, and last confirmed contact. Include known addresses, vehicles, associates, relevant travel details, and any police report number. Tell us which information is confirmed and which details are uncertain.
Can you help if I live outside Nevada?
Yes. We can discuss the case by phone and review the information you provide before deciding on a local investigative approach. Travel to Las Vegas is not required for an initial consultation.
Can an old address or disconnected phone number still help?
It may provide a starting point, particularly when combined with other identifying information. Its usefulness depends on how old it is, whether it can be connected reliably to the person, and whether further research produces current leads.
How long does a missing person investigation take?
The timeline depends on the circumstances and the leads available. Some information can be assessed through initial research; other cases require repeated field visits or follow-up as new leads develop. We discuss realistic next steps after reviewing the case.
Can you guarantee that someone will be found?
No. Results depend on the information available and what can be verified. We explain the proposed work and its limitations so you can make an informed decision about proceeding.
What if an adult is located but does not want contact?
A successful locate does not necessarily lead to a reunion or the release of personal information. Privacy, safety, and the circumstances of the case must be considered. We discuss those expectations during the case review.
