Private Investigator Lancaster
Bluemoon Investigations provides professional private investigator services in Lancaster and throughout Lancashire. Our investigators assist solicitors, businesses, landlords, insurers and private individuals who require discreet investigative support and reliable intelligence.
Investigations are often required when information is unclear, individuals cannot be located, or evidence needs to be gathered in support of legal or commercial decisions. Whether the matter involves a legal dispute, a business concern or a personal issue, our investigators aim to obtain clear and verifiable information that helps clients move forward.
Bluemoon Investigations has been established since 1981 and has decades of experience conducting investigations across the United Kingdom. Our work combines modern intelligence research techniques with practical investigative methods to deliver accurate and dependable results.
Private Investigation Services in Lancaster
Our investigators provide a wide range of investigative services tailored to the needs of both professional and private clients.
Typical services include:
- People tracing and debtor tracing
- Process serving and legal document service
- Surveillance investigations
- Background checks and due diligence
- Corporate investigations
- Litigation support for solicitors
Each investigation is conducted discreetly and in accordance with UK law.
People Tracing in Lancaster
One of the most common enquiries we receive is people tracing, sometimes referred to as skip tracing.
This service is used to locate individuals whose current address or whereabouts are unknown.
People tracing investigations are commonly used to locate:
- debtors who have moved without leaving a forwarding address
- former tenants who owe rent or property damage costs
- defendants involved in legal proceedings
- witnesses required for court cases
- estranged family members or relatives
Our investigators use specialist intelligence databases and research methods to identify addresses connected with the subject.
Importantly, the goal is not simply to produce a possible address. The objective is to identify a verified current address supported by reliable intelligence.
Debtor Tracing for Businesses
Businesses frequently encounter situations where customers or clients fail to pay invoices and then disappear.
When correspondence stops being answered and telephone numbers are no longer active, it is often because the individual has moved to another address.
Debtor tracing investigations can help identify where the individual is currently living so that recovery action can be taken.
This may include:
- issuing County Court claims
- serving statutory demands
- instructing enforcement agents
- negotiating repayment arrangements
Having a confirmed address significantly improves the chances of recovering outstanding debts.
Process Serving in Lancaster
Process serving is the formal delivery of legal documents to a person involved in legal proceedings.
Courts require confirmation that documents have been served properly and that the recipient has been notified.
Bluemoon Investigations provides professional process serving throughout Lancaster and the surrounding region.
Documents commonly served include:
- claim forms and court proceedings
- statutory demands
- bankruptcy petitions
- winding-up petitions
- divorce petitions
- injunctions and court orders
- possession notices
Once service has been completed, we provide proof of service suitable for court proceedings.
Surveillance Investigations
Surveillance investigations are used when clients require clear evidence of a person’s activities or behaviour.
Situations where surveillance may be appropriate include:
- suspected employee misconduct
- breach of restrictive covenants
- insurance fraud investigations
- suspected benefit fraud
- matrimonial or relationship concerns
Surveillance must be conducted carefully and within strict legal boundaries. Our investigators operate professionally to ensure that evidence is gathered lawfully and responsibly.
Clients receive detailed written reports and, where appropriate, photographic or video evidence.
Background Checks and Due Diligence
Before entering into a business relationship or financial agreement, it is often sensible to understand who you are dealing with.
Background checks and due diligence investigations can reveal important information about an individual or company.
These investigations may uncover:
- company directorships and business interests
- insolvency history
- litigation records
- undisclosed business connections
- reputation or media concerns
Businesses commonly request due diligence investigations before making investments, forming partnerships or entering significant transactions.
Corporate Investigations
Corporate investigations help organisations identify and resolve issues that may affect their operations or reputation.
Examples include:
- employee misconduct investigations
- intellectual property theft
- procurement or supplier fraud
- breaches of confidentiality agreements
- conflicts of interest
These investigations are handled discreetly and professionally in order to protect the interests of the organisation involved.
Litigation Support for Solicitors
Solicitors frequently instruct private investigators to assist with ongoing legal cases.
Our investigators provide litigation support services such as:
- witness tracing
- address verification
- background investigations
- evidence gathering
- asset enquiries
Investigative intelligence can help legal teams identify key individuals and obtain information relevant to the case.
Lawful and Responsible Investigations
All investigations carried out by Bluemoon Investigations are conducted in accordance with UK law and data protection legislation.
Our investigators operate within the requirements of:
- The Data Protection Act 2018

Only lawful investigative methods and authorised information sources are used. This ensures the integrity of the investigation and the reliability of the results.
