Serves papers in jurisdictions where doors don't open easily. Specializes in evasive subjects — people who've moved, changed names, or retained counsel specifically to avoid service. If he can't land it, he documents why, and that documentation is court-ready.

Client Validation

They Already Hadthe Worst Case.

01Custody / Surveillance
"

Trace delivered 14 hours of admissible surveillance footage for a contested custody matter. The documentation chain was airtight. The opposing counsel didn't even challenge it.

R. Flanagan
Family Law Attorney, Maricopa County
Maricopa County
02Employee Fraud / Digital Forensics

"We retained Trace after our internal audit team hit a wall on an employee embezzlement case. Delia Vargas reconstructed three years of deleted correspondence in six days. Case settled before trial."

Corporate Counsel
Regional Distribution Company, Pima County
Pima
03Evasive Process Serving

"The subject had been dodging service for eleven months across two states. Okafor had papers in hand in four days. He didn't ask how the subject had been evading — he just handled it."

T. Whitmore
Litigation Paralegal, Yavapai County
Yavapai
04Infidelity Investigation

"I found a second phone. I didn't know what to do with that information. Marcus had a full report — locations, timestamps, corroborating evidence — before my attorney's next available appointment."
