Private Investigation in Berrien County

Berrien County runs from the Lake Michigan beaches at St. Joseph down to the Indiana state line, and a file here crosses a border often enough that it has to be planned for. Investigative support is offered to counsel, to claims organizations, to agencies and to businesses, and directly to private clients. I'm Eugene Butler, a licensed private investigator based in Flint, and I take Berrien cases at the far corner of the state, from St. Joseph and Benton Harbor to Niles, Buchanan, and the harbor towns.

Civil litigation support and witness location are offered where a matter depends on a person who has slipped out of reach. Asset searches are offered where money is part of the picture — a divorce, an unpaid judgment, a partner understating what they own — drawing on legitimate public and proprietary records. Skip tracing and background investigation are offered where an address, an identity, or a history has to be established.

Offered directly to individuals: surveillance and domestic matters, documented without drama, and custody work built on verifiable observation and a child's safety. Sitting this close to the Indiana line means following the facts wherever they honestly lead, inside the limits a Michigan credential carries in another state. Nothing here is judged and nothing is repeated. Call or text the Butler Investigations office at 810-513-0662 and describe what has to be established.

Frequently asked

Berrien County Questions

Yes. An asset search uses public records and lawful proprietary databases to identify property, business interests, and accounts tied to a person. It's commonly used in divorce, judgment collection, and fraud matters. Only legitimate sources are used — no hacking and no pretexting into private financial data.
