Divorce, inheritance disputes and personal debts all share a common frustration: you believe there are assets the other side is not declaring. We find them — discreetly, lawfully, and with your identity protected throughout.
Whether you are in financial remedy proceedings and believe your spouse has understated what they own, navigating a contested estate where assets appear to have been moved before death, or pursuing someone who owes you money and claims to have none — the experience is the same: you are being asked to accept a picture you have good reason to doubt. Umbragarde provides asset tracing for private individuals conducted with the discretion the situation demands. We work from open sources and lawful records, document every finding, and keep your involvement entirely confidential.
You may instruct us directly or through your solicitor. We take a confidential brief, agree the scope, and proceed through open sources, property registers, company filings and lawful records — nothing intrusive, nothing that touches the subject in a way they would detect. Every material finding is corroborated before it is included. You receive a clear, sourced report: readable by you and by your legal team, and suitable for use in proceedings. We never disclose a client or a matter.
Yes. Financial remedy proceedings depend on full and frank disclosure, but that is not always what is given. We investigate what a spouse actually owns — property, business interests, assets held through third parties or overseas structures — and document the findings from open sources and lawful records. This gives your solicitor a factual basis to challenge the disclosure and support the court's determination of the true asset position.
No. We work through your legal representative or directly with you under a confidential engagement, and we never disclose who has instructed us. Our investigation proceeds through open sources and lawful records — there is no intrusion and nothing that would alert the subject. Your name and your instructions remain entirely private.
One confidential message is enough. Tell us the situation — we scope it with you.
