 888-344-1288Asset Investigation Internal Affairs offers, as an important component of the due diligence process, an International Asset Location and Identification service to assist in the location and identification of displaced assets for personal reasons, e.g. family reconciliation or estate matters, as well as to support civil and/or criminal litigation.
Information concerning the identification and location of persons and/or assets can be provided on a local, provincial, national and international ('off-shore') basis. Internal Affairs provides information about the identity and location of the asset only. The actual recovery of the asset itself, however, must occur by means of legal process, including the securing of appropriate court orders whether on a world-wide basis or, using local resources, specific to the jurisdiction concerned. The ability to identify and locate persons and/or assets is a critical first step leading to reconciliation and/or recovery particularly where there has been significant diversion of funds because of theft, fraud or other forms of misappropriation in both personal, e.g. matrimonial and/or corporate, e.g. embezzlement, situations. Internal Affairs can locate and identify assets anywhere including Canada, the United States, Central or South America, the Caribbean, Europe, the former Soviet Union, Africa, or the Far East. Investigations, regardless of the issue involved, are conducted in complete privacy and in confidence not only because of practical realities, applicable legislation and institutional policies, but, more importantly, because sound business practice, and clients, will accept no less a standard with respect to their affairs. Asset investigations are conducted on behalf of local, provincial, federal and international law enforcement agencies, other government departments, law firms, financial institutions, insurance companies, forensic accountants, fraud investigators as well as private individuals. Internal Affairs works with and advises solicitors and clients to provide continuing assistance in the legal recovery process with respect to any assets that have been successfully located and identified. The discovery of assets following an international location and identification investigation requires a considerable initial financial investment and, later, the services of a competent lawyer who possesses the requisite knowledge, experience and legal sophistication to initiate the formal process necessary to ultimately effect recovery of the asset(s) concerned.
