Search for Missing Persons or Abductions

Many factors may lead to a disappearance, such as family conflicts, adoption cases, accidents, or other personal circumstances. In recent years, broader phenomena have also contributed to the separation of families. Since 2014, migration crises involving individuals crossing the Balkans or the Mediterranean Sea to flee war and other catastrophes have been a major cause, tragically separating numerous families.

A missing or abducted person profoundly affects not only their immediate family but also relatives and close friends. A disappearance may be forced or voluntary. In all cases, however, families and loved ones of missing or abducted persons endure immense distress and may remain without news for months or even years. While some cases are tragic, others may allow for meaningful progress through investigation, leading to the location of the missing person or at least the clarification of essential facts.

We operate in the same manner in cases of abduction.

Intra-family or extra-family abduction in Switzerland remains a traumatic event that often plunges families into profound anxiety. Neuhaus Private Investigations, a private investigation agency based in Lausanne, offers to search for individuals with whom you have experienced an unwanted loss of contact.

We can also assist in preventing such events or in supporting the search for a missing person, in coordination and complement to police services where appropriate.

With recognized expertise and experience, our private investigation firm intervenes in cases of abduction, concerning disappearances, and search operations carried out in the interest of families and loved ones.

All our actions related to the search for abducted or missing persons are conducted in full compliance with the applicable legal framework in Switzerland, enabling you to use our report in court proceedings if necessary.

Initially, our private investigation firm gathers from the family all available information concerning the person who has been abducted or gone missing. This allows us to formally identify the subject of the investigation and avoid any risk of mistaken identity. We then implement rapid and effective measures to actively contribute to locating the missing person.

Our investigative methods in cases involving abduction in Switzerland are largely inspired by those of official authorities, enabling us to make optimal use of all available leads. We guarantee serious, professional work carried out with strict confidentiality.

To keep you informed in real time, our private investigation firm remains reachable at all times, including at night if the situation requires. We are fully committed to helping you locate your loved ones as swiftly as possible.

Our philosophy is to provide each client with our expertise as a private investigator in matters of investigation, search for persons in abduction cases, private and judicial inquiries, and the fight against insurance fraud.

Every case is unique, and we approach each file with dedication, guided by our professional commitment and passion for this field.

The network our agency has established in Switzerland and abroad is extensive and relevant. Our private investigation agency maintains contact with members of major international organizations and with other services specializing in the search for missing persons and cases of abduction both in Switzerland and internationally.

To maximize the chances of success, thorough preparation is essential. We request from our clients all information in their possession, including details relating not only to the missing person but also to their family and broader circle. We must also understand their habits, contacts, and usual means of transportation.

In cases of disappearance and abduction, collaboration between our private investigation firm and law enforcement authorities may be appropriate and necessary for the exchange of gathered information. However, such steps are always proposed to and approved by the client beforehand.

Please contact our private investigators. We guarantee discretion and confidentiality.
