What Our Clients Discovered

These anonymized case summaries represent the kinds of findings our investigators routinely uncover. Names and identifying details have been changed to protect client privacy.

Divorce — Hidden Assets

Spouse Concealed 3 Properties

A client going through divorce in Harris County suspected her husband of hiding assets. Our investigators searched deed records across 7 Texas counties and uncovered three undisclosed properties held through an LLC — totaling over $940,000 in real estate he had not declared.

Client's attorney used the findings in mediation — she received a substantially equalized settlement.
Business Due Diligence

Silent Offshore Bank Accounts

An Austin investor was negotiating a partnership with a local business owner. Our financial background investigation uncovered two offshore accounts, a prior SEC inquiry, and a pattern of dissolved LLCs that had left creditors unpaid — none of which appeared in the prospectus.

Client walked away from a $250,000 investment that would have gone bad.
Personal Investigation

Online Romance Scam

A Fort Worth woman requested a background check on a man she'd been dating for four months after he requested a large financial transfer. Our check revealed he was married with two children in another state, had a prior fraud arrest, and had used at least four aliases across dating platforms.

Client severed contact before transferring any funds. Law enforcement was notified.

What Our Clients Say

We've helped thousands of Texans get the answers they needed. Here's what a few of them had to say.

★★★★★

"I suspected my business partner was hiding income from our LLC. Within 48 hours, Fontes International delivered a report that showed two undisclosed accounts and a side company he'd set up to divert client payments. My attorney said it was the most organized investigative report he'd ever seen used in a civil case."

R. Hernandez

Austin, TX — Business Due Diligence

★★★★★

"I was about to wire $15,000 to a man I'd been talking to online for three months. Something felt off. I ordered a background check on a Friday afternoon and had the report by Sunday morning. He was using a fake name, was married, and had two prior fraud arrests. You may have saved my life savings."

D. Wallace

Fort Worth, TX — Personal Investigation

★★★★★

"We run a property management company and have used Fontes for tenant screening for over four years. Their reports go deeper than anything you get from an online service. They caught a applicant last year who had evictions filed under three different names. Worth every penny."

T. Morales

San Antonio, TX — Tenant Screening
