Private Investigators in San José, Costa Rica

Tracked N Solved™ Investigation Agency – Cross-Border Investigation Services

So someone you trusted – could be a lover, business buddy, or even family – just packed up and took off to San José, Costa Rica. And guess what? They didn’t leave empty-handed. Your money’s gone, your stuff’s gone, maybe your kids are gone, or you’re just sitting there wondering what in the world actually happened. Now you’re stuck at home trying to figure out how to deal with someone who’s living it up 3,000 miles away.

That’s exactly what we do at Tracked N Solved™ Investigation Agency. We go after people who’ve run off to Costa Rica after screwing people over here in the States. We work with some really good people in San José who know how to work both sides – U.S. courts and Costa Rican courts.

Here’s the deal with San José – it’s become like the ultimate escape destination for Americans who want to start over. Which would be great, except it also attracts people who NEED to start over because they’ve burned everyone they know back home. The city’s got everything – modern stuff, cheap rent, tons of Americans already living there speaking English. It’s ridiculously easy for someone to just blend right in. Plus the weather’s perfect, the government’s stable, and you’ve got beaches everywhere. Basically, if you wanted to disappear and start fresh after making a complete mess of your life, this would be the place.

And that’s your problem right there. Everything that makes Costa Rica perfect for honest people wanting a fresh start also makes it perfect for people running away from what they did. Privacy? Check. Less government paperwork? Check. Far enough from U.S. courts that nobody can touch you? Double check. It’s like a safe house for people who’ve hurt others and don’t want to face what’s coming.

The Reality of Cross-Border Fraud and Deception

When someone takes off to Costa Rica after really hurting you – financially, emotionally, whatever – you’re not dealing with some small-time scam. You’re up against someone who actually planned this whole thing out. They knew that once they got to another country, chasing them down would be a total nightmare for you. They picked Costa Rica specifically because they figured you’d never be able to reach them there.

This isn’t some spur-of-the-moment “oh crap I better run” situation. The people who end up in San José after causing damage back home? They’ve been planning this for months. Moving money around, making friends with locals, setting up new identities – basically building themselves a nice little fortress to hide behind while you’re left dealing with the mess they made.

Understanding Relationship Scams and How They Work

Costa Rica looks like paradise – and these scammers know it. They use that whole tropical romance thing to run cons on Americans back home. These people are pros at creating fake lives that look totally real. They’ll tell you about their business down there, some family emergency that needs money, or this amazing investment opportunity that just needs a little cash to get started.

What makes these relationship scams so brutal is how these jerks juggle multiple victims while using international law to stay protected. They build this whole fake Costa Rican lifestyle to make their stories believable while staying completely out of your reach. These criminals are really, really good at messing with your head and working around the legal system. I’m talking months or years of building fake personalities with detailed stories about life in Costa Rica. Fake Facebook pages, fake business licenses, fake local friends – everything designed to fool Americans looking for real love.

Our partners down in Costa Rica? They’ve seen it all. They know exactly how these scumbags operate, who helps them locally, and what it takes to track them down through all their lies and fake stories. We follow the money, save all the digital evidence, and find their other victims so we can build a case that actually sticks against these international romance predators.

Dealing with Infidelity Across Borders

Your spouse or partner cheats on you, then runs off to Costa Rica – either because they’re scared of getting caught or because they want to be with their new person. Talk about getting hit twice. First there’s the betrayal, which feels like getting punched in the gut. Then you’ve got to somehow get proof of what they’re doing while they’re in another country. Costa Rica’s got this whole “mind your own business” culture, plus all these tight American communities where it’s super easy for cheating partners to hide what they’re doing and avoid taking any responsibility.

Our people can follow them around without being seen, document their new relationships, how they’re living, what they’re doing – all stuff that matters if you’re getting divorced, fighting for custody, or trying to figure out where your money went. They know how Costa Rica’s legal system works and how to get evidence that’ll actually hold up in U.S. courts. Things get really complicated when your spouse has been secretly moving money to Costa Rica or using your shared money to fund their new life and new relationship down there.

Skip Tracing – Finding People Who Don’t Want to Be Found

Same reasons Costa Rica’s great for legitimate fresh starts make it perfect for people trying to disappear from debts, legal problems, or just people they don’t want to deal with anymore. Maybe someone owes you money and vanished. Maybe they took off with business money. Maybe they just disappeared from your life completely and you need answers. That’s where professional people-finding services come in.

Costa Rica’s got endless places to hide – beach towns, mountain towns, you name it. Plus there’s this whole cash economy where people can make deals without leaving paper trails, and American expat networks where you can get help starting over. Our specialists know exactly how people move around in Costa Rica’s American communities, what resources they use to build new identities, and what tricks it takes to find people who are actively trying to stay hidden using the country’s geography and culture to their advantage.

We get inside these expat communities, watch financial activity, and track movement patterns to find people who think they can just disappear forever into Costa Rica’s landscape.

Process Servers – Getting Legal Papers to People Hiding

One of the biggest headaches when you’re going after someone in Costa Rica is actually getting them served with legal papers. Divorce papers, lawsuit notices, court orders – whatever it is, you’ve got to serve it properly or your whole case could fall apart and give them even more time to keep avoiding responsibility.

Costa Rica’s got this whole different legal system with really strict rules about how you serve documents. It’s complicated enough that most people trying to do it themselves just end up making mistakes that hurt their case. We work with people who really know both Costa Rican law and international rules for serving papers. They use special techniques to serve papers on people who are actively hiding, including surveillance and perfect timing, while making sure everything meets the strict requirements both U.S. and Costa Rican courts demand.

Real Estate Investigations – Finding Hidden Property and Money

Costa Rica’s property market is booming, and it’s pretty easy for foreigners to buy property there. Which makes it perfect for people trying to hide assets from creditors, divorce proceedings, or other legal issues. Lots of people who run off to Costa Rica with stolen or hidden money invest big in local real estate. They think foreign ownership and distance from U.S. courts will protect their investments from people trying to get their money back.

But investigators who know what they’re doing can work Costa Rica’s property records, figure out who really owns what even when it’s hidden behind fake companies, and get evidence for getting assets back in both U.S. and Costa Rican courts. The tricky part is usually figuring out not just what property someone owns now, but where the money came from originally and what income they’re using to support their expensive lifestyle. This means detailed investigation of spending habits, money movements, and hiding patterns that could be crucial for lawsuits and recovery.

Professional investigators can trace property ownership through Costa Rica’s records, identify shell companies and fake arrangements used to hide real ownership, and document asset transfers that might be recoverable.

Business Fraud – When Partners and Executives Disappear

Costa Rica’s got a legitimate business environment and good trade relationships with the U.S., which makes it perfect cover for sophisticated scams targeting American investors and business partners. These criminals point to real economic growth, real international business, and real corporate infrastructure to make their fake operations look legitimate while using Costa Rica as a base for ongoing fraud.

When business partners, executives, or service providers disappear to Costa Rica after stealing company money, taking client funds, or running investment scams, they often keep operating under new business identities. They use Costa Rica’s business formation process, banking privacy, and expat networks to set up what looks like legitimate operations while actually living off money from previous crimes. Our investigators who specialize in international cases know how to trace corporate ownership, identify ongoing fraud, and document financial patterns that connect past crimes with current activities.

Child Custody – When Parents Kidnap Kids to Costa Rica

When a parent takes off to Costa Rica with your kids while violating custody orders or during custody proceedings, you’re facing international parental kidnapping complicated by foreign legal systems. Costa Rica doesn’t participate in the Hague Convention on International Child Kidnapping, which makes getting kids back through diplomatic channels nearly impossible. You need specialized legal and investigation approaches that understand both American family law and Costa Rican custody rules.

Our investigators who understand both legal systems can locate kidnapped children, document their living conditions, and gather evidence for both criminal prosecution and civil proceedings while working with local authorities and legal counsel. These cases are emotionally urgent and require investigators who can work fast and carefully while understanding cultural and legal complications. Time is critical because children might be moved to different locations or even other countries if parents realize they’re being tracked.

Parental Abduction – Emergency Response for Kidnapped Children

International cases involving Costa Rica need immediate professional help to prevent children from disappearing completely into expat communities or being moved somewhere even harder to reach. Our investigators understand how urgent these situations are and can respond rapidly to locate children before trails go cold. They work against tight deadlines that often determine success or failure.

It’s not just about finding children – it’s about gathering evidence about their circumstances, welfare, and what led to their removal from the United States. This information is crucial for both immediate recovery and long-term legal proceedings to prevent future incidents and ensure children’s safety. Our investigators coordinate with U.S. law enforcement, international agencies, and Costa Rican authorities while working within international law and children’s welfare requirements. They balance urgent child recovery needs with procedural requirements that ensure evidence will be useful for legal proceedings and family reunification.

Asset Search – Finding Hidden Money and Accounts

Costa Rica’s banking privacy laws and business formation rules make it easy for people to hide major assets from creditors, divorce proceedings, or other legal issues through sophisticated financial structures designed to obscure ownership and control. Many people who flee to Costa Rica with undisclosed assets use complicated arrangements involving shell companies, nominee directors, and multiple financial institutions to hide their wealth from American courts and creditors.

Our investigators know how to navigate these complicated arrangements and identify who really owns and controls assets despite elaborate concealment efforts involving multiple layers of corporate structures, offshore banking, and nominee arrangements designed to frustrate recovery efforts. Success often depends on understanding not just current holdings, but financial activity patterns that show ongoing income, lifestyle spending, and financial relationships that contradict claims of being unable to pay legal obligations. This requires detailed analysis of banking records, property transactions, business activities, and lifestyle indicators that reveal hidden wealth.

Missing Persons – Finding People Who’ve Disappeared

When someone important to you has disappeared to Costa Rica – whether voluntarily or not – our investigators can use specialized techniques to locate people in foreign jurisdictions where traditional American investigation methods don’t work or aren’t legally appropriate. The challenge involves understanding both legitimate reasons people relocate to Costa Rica and methods used by those trying to permanently disappear from their previous lives. This requires approaches that can distinguish between voluntary relocation and situations involving coercion, deception, or other concerning circumstances.

Costa Rica’s appeal for people seeking new beginnings means cases can involve complicated motivations and circumstances. Someone might have relocated for legitimate reasons but lost contact due to changed circumstances, or they might be actively hiding from family members, creditors, or legal obligations. Our investigators know how to distinguish between these scenarios and use appropriate investigation techniques for each situation. They work sensitively with families trying to reestablish contact with loved ones while handling more complex cases involving people deliberately avoiding detection.

A costa rico private investigator with extensive experience in these complex international location cases can make the crucial difference between success and failure when traditional methods don’t work for cross-border investigations.
