Affidavit of Diligent Search and Inquiry Following Unsuccessful Service of Process

Before a court can authorize constructive service of process or service by publication, Florida law requires a well-documented Affidavit of Diligent Search and Inquiry. That's where we come in. Our Licensed Florida Private Investigators perform comprehensive, legally compliant investigations to locate defendants and other missing litigation parties while documenting every reasonable search effort. If the subject cannot be found, we prepare a detailed, court ready affidavit that helps attorneys and law firms satisfy legal requirements, minimize delays, and move their cases toward resolution as quickly and efficiently as possible.
