Private Investigation Services

Private Investigators For Attorneys and Anyone With A Legal Case

Carl Mason P.I. specializes in providing comprehensive private investigation services tailored for any legal situation.

  • Judgment Enforcement

    Congratulations on your award. If the judgment debtor is not paying, you are entitled to know their financial situation and any assets they own. An asset search and financial investigation will reveal what exists, hidden assets, and how to collect.

  • Litigation Support

    Already filed a lawsuit? It may be time for an asset investigation to determine if the opposing side is being honest during the discovery process. Assess their ability to pay for settlement or prepare for judgment collection.

  • Pre-Litigation

    Thinking about a lawsuit? Relying solely on public records search may not suffice. Ensure you know all of the facts and information before you file a lawsuit. Know how much the opposing side can pay in advance of any settlement or court filing.

  • Internal Theft

    Maximize investigation outcomes by understanding the individual's financial standing. Assess any changes since the theft and determine their ability to pay restitution.

  • Fraud / Embezzlement

    Fraud investigations demand meticulous financial scrutiny. Identifying financial discrepancies and lifestyle changes can be crucial for case resolution, settlements, restitution, or trial preparation.

  • Intellectual Property IP

    A dispute over rights to intellectual property can be complicated and linger in courts for a long time. It may be helpful to know about the opposition's ability to pay a settlement or eventual judgment.

  • Contract Dispute

    In cases of breached contracts, understanding the financial status of a business and individual is crucial. Assess their ability to fulfill obligations to repay you effectively.

  • Matrimonial / Divorce

    Your spouse will be required to share their finances. In divorce proceedings, ensuring your spouse's honesty about finances is paramount, preventing asset concealment. Verify completeness and accuracy for equitable settlements.

  • Insurance

    When damages exceed the insurance policy limits, you can utilize asset investigations to determine the defendant's assets and their ability to cover any incurred damages.

  • Criminal / Civil

    Some legal cases that are in court for criminal matters, may also become a separate civil matter in a different court. Be prepared with insights regarding the defendant’s financial ability to pay.

  • Probate / Inheritance

    Determine if assets still exist after someone passes away. As the executor or family member, it is important to ensure the distribution of wealth is completed as directed in accordance with a valid will.

  • Something Else

    Every situation can be unique. Contact Carl to discuss your case in detail, and find out how he can help.

  • Complex Research for Legal Support

    Certain legal cases involve public figures or situations that require a high level of experience. I have worked on sensitive cases that were on national news – Fox, NBC, and 60 Minutes. The clients I have represented are household names and require a discreet approach.

  • IP Theft - Patent Infringement

    If your competitor created products similar to your patent-protected ones, they may have stolen your Intellectual Property. I work IP Theft cases to identify the perpetrator, gather evidence, and ensure that you are well positioned to file a legal claim.

    $308 billion. That’s the annual cost of insurance fraud in the U.S., published by The Coalition Against Insurance Fraud (CAIF).

  • Locate Heirs To An Estate

    In the unfortunate event of a person’s death without a valid will, their estate passes onto their heirs according to the law. However, locating the rightful heirs to an estate can be a challenging task, especially if there are multiple claimants and beneficiaries. I am often assigned to the role of Probate Researcher to identify and locate people who may be heirs.

Carl Mason P.I. delivers court-ready asset search reports and a clear investigative strategy—giving attorneys, businesses, and individuals verified financial intelligence, even when assets are concealed through trusts, LLCs, nominee ownership, or complex financial structures.
