Skip Tracing & Asset Verification

Locating uncontactable debtors and verifying recoverable assets so recovery effort is directed where it can succeed.

Service overview

What this service covers

When a debtor cannot be reached, recovery cannot begin. UDRA conducts lawful tracing and verification work to re-establish contact, confirm current circumstances and assess whether a balance is genuinely recoverable before further cost is incurred.

Who this service is for

  • Institutions holding uncontactable or written-down accounts
  • Clients considering legal action who need a viability assessment
  • Portfolio buyers assessing recoverability before acquisition
  • Businesses with debtors who have relocated or restructured

Key challenges addressed

The problems this service is built to resolve

Debtors who have relocated or changed contact details

Files stall indefinitely when the last known address and number are no longer valid.

Uncertainty over whether to litigate

Legal cost is wasted where there is no realistic prospect of recovery.

Corporate debtors that have restructured

Entities dissolve, rename or transfer trade, obscuring the liable party.

Fragmented and unreliable data sources

Information must be corroborated before it can be acted upon.
