Pre-Marital Investigations and Relationship Due Diligence
Marriage can join finances, families, housing, businesses, and long-term legal obligations. When important claims are unclear or inconsistent, a focused pre-marital investigation can help verify facts before a major commitment—without assuming wrongdoing or intruding into protected information.
Alibi Investigations is attorney-owned and operates under Florida private investigation agency license A-3200187. Research is purpose-limited and uses public, client-authorized, and otherwise lawfully accessible sources. Call 941-208-6544 or request a confidential pre-marital review.
What Pre-Marital Due Diligence May Verify
The right scope depends on the representations being made and the decision they affect. A pre-marital investigation may examine:
- Identity, aliases, age, address history, and other available identifiers.
- Prior marriages, divorces, civil litigation, judgments, liens, bankruptcies, and public court history where relevant.
- Criminal-record information in jurisdictions connected to the subject, with careful identity matching.
- Employment, professional licenses, education, businesses, or credentials when appropriate and verifiable.
- Publicly available property, corporate, and open-source information relevant to specific claims.
- Public social media, usernames, images, and online activity through lawful social media research.
Private investigators do not have unrestricted access to bank, tax, credit, medical, phone, or private-account records. Financial disclosure, prenuptial agreements, and legal rights should be addressed with qualified counsel. A background search also cannot predict future conduct or guarantee that every relevant record exists in accessible sources.
A Respectful, Decision-Focused Process
- Identify the material claims. Separate facts that affect marriage, safety, finances, immigration, housing, or business decisions from curiosity that would not change the decision.
- Provide reliable identifiers. Correct names, aliases, approximate age, addresses, employers, photographs, profiles, and relevant documents improve identity matching.
- Confirm lawful scope. Alibi reviews the requester, purpose, jurisdictions, authorization, sources, privacy limits, and any safety concerns.
- Verify and report. Findings are tied to sources and reported as confirmed facts, possible matches, client-supplied information, inconsistencies, or unresolved gaps.
The goal is informed decision-making, not humiliation or confrontation. Alibi rejects requests involving hacking, impersonation, unwanted access, stalking, revenge, intimidation, or unrestricted protected data.
Pre-Marital Investigation FAQs
What information should I provide?
Provide correct names and aliases, approximate age or date of birth when lawfully available, prior addresses, employers, schools, businesses, photographs, profile links, known jurisdictions, specific claims to verify, and the decision the information should support.
Can you find hidden bank accounts or tax returns?
Not through unrestricted access. Bank, tax, credit, medical, phone, and other protected records require lawful authority and appropriate process. Financial disclosure and discovery should be handled with qualified counsel.
Can you confirm whether someone was married before?
Relevant public records may confirm prior marriages, divorces, or related court matters in identified jurisdictions, but availability varies and a missing record does not prove that no prior marriage exists.
Will the subject know about the investigation?
Alibi handles appropriate matters discreetly, but no investigator can guarantee that research or field activity will never be noticed. The scope, need for consent, and risk of disclosure are reviewed before work begins.
What will I receive?
Depending on the engagement, deliverables may include an identity comparison, source list, verified record summaries, preserved public online material, a chronology, and a factual report explaining inconsistencies and material limits.
Can a pre-marital investigation guarantee that someone is trustworthy?
No. An investigation can verify defined claims and identify accessible records or inconsistencies, but cannot determine character, predict future conduct, or guarantee that every relevant fact will be found.
