Get Your Money’s Worth: Hidden Asset Investigations

In an increasingly complex financial world, uncovering hidden assets is no longer just the work of forensic accountants and courtroom dramas. It’s a real need for many individuals navigating divorce, child support disputes, business disagreements, or probate cases. When the truth is buried beneath layers of deception, shell corporations, or offshore accounts, a skilled private investigator can make all the difference. At Kinsey Investigations, we specialize in discreet, thorough, and legally sound asset and hidden finance investigations for clients across Los Angeles and Southern California.

Many of our clients come to us after facing frustration in court or during negotiations. Whether it’s a spouse who suddenly “can’t afford” support payments or a business partner whose records don’t quite add up, the reality is that financial deceit is often intentional and difficult to uncover without professional help. Hidden assets can include anything from bank accounts and investment portfolios to real estate, luxury items, or even cryptocurrency wallets. What makes these investigations particularly challenging is the deliberate effort many individuals make to conceal ownership or transfer assets in order to evade legal or financial responsibility.

Kinsey Investigations has experience navigating these murky financial waters. As a licensed woman-owned private investigation firm, we take pride in offering trustworthy and compassionate services during what is often a very personal and high-stakes situation. Using a combination of surveillance, background checks, deep-dive database searches, and public record reviews, our team has helped uncover millions of dollars in hidden assets for our clients. Our approach is not only thorough but fully compliant with California law and court-admissible, meaning the information we provide can be used in legal proceedings if necessary.

If you suspect someone is hiding assets from you, it’s time to uncover the truth – with Kinsey Investigations by your side.

What Are Hidden Assets, and Why Are They Concealed?

Hidden assets refer to any property, income, or financial holdings intentionally kept out of view to mislead another party. These can include:

• Undisclosed bank or investment accounts
• Real estate owned under another name or LLC
• Vehicles, jewelry, or luxury items tucked away or transferred
• Income diverted through side businesses or cash transactions
• Offshore holdings or digital currency

The reasons behind concealing assets vary. In divorce and child support cases, individuals may hide income to reduce financial obligations. In lawsuits or judgment recovery situations, people may claim they’re insolvent while holding valuable assets. In business, partners may attempt to obscure profits or siphon funds.

This type of deceit is not only unethical – it can also be illegal. But proving hidden assets exist requires more than suspicion. That’s where professional investigation makes all the difference.

The Kinsey Investigations Approach

At Kinsey Investigations, we go far beyond the surface. Our asset investigations are comprehensive, leveraging both public records and proprietary databases. We also utilize techniques such as:

• Surveillance
• Interviews and witness statements
• Financial record analysis
• Deep-dive background checks
• Corporate and property ownership tracing
• Digital forensics when necessary

Our investigators are not only skilled researchers, they are strategic thinkers trained to uncover connections others may overlook. We know how to identify when assets are intentionally being hidden, even if they’ve been transferred to friends, relatives, or business entities.

Most importantly, our methods are always legal, confidential, and designed to hold up in court if necessary. Many of our investigations support litigation, meaning our findings may be used to help secure judgments, modify court orders, or reach equitable settlements.

Common Scenarios Where Asset Investigations Are Critical

1. Divorce and Family Law Disputes

Perhaps the most common reason for hidden asset investigations, divorce cases often involve one spouse trying to shield income or property to reduce spousal support, child support, or division of marital assets. Kinsey Investigations has worked with family law attorneys and individuals across California to ensure accurate financial disclosures and protect clients from financial manipulation.

2. Judgment Recovery

Winning a lawsuit is one thing – collecting on it is another. If someone claims they’re broke after a judgment is entered against them, an asset investigation can uncover hidden resources such as unreported income or property. Our investigators work to identify assets so you can pursue rightful compensation.

3. Business Disputes and Fraud

Business partners sometimes conceal revenue, underreport profits, or siphon money into unrelated ventures. If you suspect foul play in a business relationship, our team can conduct a thorough asset search to expose inconsistencies and protect your interests.

4. Probate and Estate Matters

When managing or contesting an estate, it’s critical to know if all assets have been disclosed. Heirs and beneficiaries deserve a complete accounting. Kinsey Investigations can uncover financial accounts, property, or valuables that may have been hidden or overlooked.

What We Can Locate

Kinsey Investigations can uncover a wide range of concealed or undisclosed assets, including:

• Bank and investment accounts (domestic and offshore)
• Real estate holdings and rental properties
• Business ownership or financial interest in LLCs, partnerships, and corporations
• Retirement accounts and pensions
• Vehicles, boats, planes, and other titled assets
• Intellectual property, patents, and trademarks
• Cryptocurrency holdings
• Lawsuit settlements or insurance claims

We combine our knowledge of public records, forensic accounting, and investigative intuition to find the financial pieces others miss. Our clients often tell us that our work made the difference in a court case or negotiation outcome.

Discretion and Professionalism Matter

We understand that asset investigations often occur during emotionally charged situations – divorces, custody battles, or legal conflicts. That’s why discretion is at the core of everything we do. All inquiries are confidential, and we respect the sensitivity of your case from start to finish.

In many situations, we can conduct a preliminary investigation to assess whether deeper digging is warranted. From there, we provide detailed reports that can support legal filings, settlement discussions, or internal decision-making.

Our team at Kinsey Investigations is committed to transparency and professionalism, providing you with not just answers, but peace of mind.
