CMPNZ uses highly experienced research and investigation professionals to locate friends and family people you've lost touch with or to help prepare documentation for legal proceedings i.e. locating heirs. We are a charitable trust and as such our tracing services are offered for the enrichment and reunification of New Zealanders. 

IMPORTANT:

  1. There is a cost for our services but this is heavily subsidised by the charity.  Private investigator costs usually start at $100+ per hour.  We offer 10 hours of investigation for $249 and then if necessary $25 per hour there after.
  2. We do not offer our tracing services for the purposes of debt recovery, matrimonial dispute or crime resolution. If you wish to locate a person for these purposes, we suggest you contact a private investigator.

Family Tracing

People lose touch with family and friends for many reasons and in todays modern age its surprisingly more common than ever before! Only a generation or two ago, people rarely moved house or changed jobs and cities were a lot smaller.

Now people frequently change jobs, cell phones are lost, email addresses change and even moving house or city is commonplace. Its estimated about 1 in 5 people can think of someone they'd love to re-establish contact with. Some of the more common reasons for this are;

  • the need to inform family members of a death, birth or marriage
  • searching for adopted children or birth parents
  • the need for medical information from a parent or sibling
  • genealogical research to locate ancestors and/or descendants
  • reunions with old friends, work colleagues or lovers
  • acquiring important documents i.e. birth certificates etc
  • determining who owns a piece of land
  • locating the final resting place of a loved one

For all these reasons and more we can help you find that person missing from your life.

The amount of information you wish to us to trace is ultimately determined by you.  We can offer a tracing service that suits your unique circumstances and budget.  All information is treated with the upmost respect and privacy.

CMPNZ operates as a charitable trust and greatly subsidises its tracing services to the NZ public.  If you wish to find out more about how we can help you locate somebody please complete the form at the bottom of this page. We will respond within 24hrs.
