Blog

Welcome to the McGrath Investigative Services blog, where we share practical insight from more than 27 years of investigative and process serving work across New Hampshire. Our articles cover the questions we hear most often from attorneys, businesses, landlords and individuals: how process service works in New Hampshire, what a skip trace can and cannot find, what to expect from a background check, how surveillance is conducted legally and ethically, and how court research supports a case.

We also write about the communities we serve, from the Seacoast towns of Seabrook, Hampton and Portsmouth to Manchester, Nashua, Concord and the Lakes Region, because local knowledge matters when you need to locate someone or serve papers on a deadline. Many posts focus on a specific town and the challenges that come with it, such as rural addresses, seasonal residents or evasive defendants.

Every article is written to help you make a better decision about whether you need an investigator, what information to gather before you call, and what a realistic outcome looks like. If you have a situation that is not covered here, contact us and we will talk it through with you confidentially.
