locate and skip tracing

"Half of the world is looking for the other half."

Are you looking for someone? A former classmate? Old friend? Military buddy? Birth parent? Lost relative? If so, then you're not alone.

Friends and relatives can become separated for so many reasons -- adoption, divorce and relocation are just a few. The search may sometimes seem endless, but our resources for finding lost relatives and missing friends can lead you on the right trail to finding that certain someone you've been trying so hard to locate.

Lyle Sharman is a true Master of this craft: From finding birth parents to organ donors, his incredible investigative skills are a treat to all who see him in action. His impressive track record for locating people means that he is routinely inundated with dozens of new cases to solve on a monthly basis

Dear Lyle,

I'd like to take the time to thank you for the wonderful job you did finding my cousin. From the first time we spoke on the phone until you finished the job, I knew I had the right person.

I knew nothing about what I was getting into, or even how to begin to hire a Private Investigator. You explained that process and made sure I understood clearly which set me at ease. You have that confidence, calmness and professional attitude about you that I believe makes you successful.

In the end you came through like a champ and I still can't thank you enough for your services you provided.

Please feel free to use me as a reference in the future. Also if your ever in Massachusetts some day please look me up. I'd love to shake your hand for a job well done.

Thanks again Lyle.

Sincerely,

Albert Lodi

Approximately two months ago I was talking with my very good friend Lyle Sharman about the fact that I had a long lost daughter and son Gary & Cheryl. The last time I saw them was 51 years ago. Gary was 2 years old and Cheryl was 9 months old. Their mother and I went through a messy divorce and I moved out of the state. My X moved and had their last names changed so I would not be able to find them. Lyle who amongst other things is also a private investigator, said that he has an excellent success rate at finding long lost relatives. Over the years I tried to locate them but to no avail, I was told I didn’t have enough information and I finally resolved the fact that I may never be able to see them again.

After close to a month went by Lyle said he was making some headway. Then the unbelievable happened he found my daughter Cheryl

Cheryl made the decision to talk with me over the phone. Lyle gave me her number and for the first time in 51 years I heard my daughters voice, we both were in tears. We found out that we had a lot in common and we hit it off better then I could ever hope for. All the trophies and awards that I won in the martial arts over the past 35 years could not even come close to the thrill I received from our wonderful reunion. I can never repay Lyle enough for bringing so much joy and happiness into both of our life’s. I thought these things only happen in the movies. My next step is to talk with Gary.

Hi Lyle

We just wanted to say "thank you" for all your efforts in locating Michaels half brothers. No one ever knew that Michaels Mother had other children. It's just unbelievable.

We've had contact with them by phone and email and have exchanged photo's. Hopefully someday everyone will meet.

Because Sheila and you we feel that this is the beginning of new family connections and friendships and hopefully everyone will stay in contact.

Again, thank you on behalf of everyone. You did a great job!

Sincerely,

Vera & Michael

Best wishes for the New Year. Mostly, thank you so very much for your hard work of finding my Mom.

Sincerely Yours,

Joe, Nancy and Nicole
