How Trestleboard Investigations Approaches Asset Searches
Asset searches answer a simple but often elusive question: what does this person or company actually own? Trestleboard investigators cross-reference public records, court filings, business registrations, and property databases to build an accurate picture of real property, vehicles, business interests, and financial holdings.
This work supports divorce proceedings, judgment collection, pre-litigation strategy, and due diligence before a business deal. Every search is documented with sources, so your attorney or financial advisor can verify and act on the findings directly.
Asset searches identify

Why Accuracy Matters in Asset Work
An asset search is only useful if it's accurate, and Trestleboard Investigations treats every finding as something that has to hold up under an opposing attorney's scrutiny. That means cross-checking multiple sources before anything goes into a report.
A single overlooked property or business interest can change a settlement or a judgment collection strategy entirely, which is why thoroughness matters more than speed on this kind of engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can legally be searched for an asset investigation?
Public records including property deeds, business filings, court judgments, and vehicle registrations are all fair game and form the backbone of most asset searches.
Can you find hidden bank accounts?
We can identify strong indicators of undisclosed accounts and holdings through records patterns, though direct account access requires legal process, which we can help your attorney pursue.
Is this useful before a divorce filing?
Yes — many clients commission an asset search before filing so their attorney has a complete financial picture from day one.
How long does an asset search take?
Most searches are completed within one to two weeks, depending on how many jurisdictions and record types are involved.
Can an asset search cover out-of-state property?
Yes, through Delator Group's broader network we can extend a search beyond Tennessee when a subject's holdings warrant it.
