SKIP TRACE

# A current address for the person you can't find

## Overview

When the address on file is old, service stalls. MCC Solutions runs database searches to find a likely current address for the person you need to serve or reach, then our servers can go straight there.

Starting at **$75** per person · [all fees](/notary/fees)

FAQ

## Common questions

**Is this a private investigation?**

No. It's a database search for a current address. We don't do surveillance or investigations, which require a New Jersey private detective license.

**Is the address guaranteed?**

No. Database records can be out of date. We tell you how recent each result is, and an attempt at the address confirms it.

**What purposes do you accept?**

Legitimate legal purposes such as service of process, collecting a judgment or debt, and finding heirs. We don't search for anyone trying to locate a person for personal reasons.

**Will the person know we searched?**

No. Database searches don't contact the person.

## Plan it

A skip trace is $75 per person, with a lawful purpose required.

If you represent yourself, you are responsible for your documents: what they say, that they are complete and signed, which court they go to and that they are filed on time. We are not lawyers, we do not give legal advice or draft pleadings, and we cannot guarantee any legal outcome. We file, serve or pull exactly what you send.
