What happens when you suspect your spouse is concealing assets, transferring money, understating income, or quietly preparing for divorce?! In this episode, Brooke Summerhill speaks with Anthony DeLorenzo Jr., a third-generation private investigator and partner at All State Investigations, Inc., a nationally recognized leader in matrimonial and high-asset private investigations. Anthony explains which investigative searches may provide the most valuable information when a financially dependent or less financially informed spouse fears that assets are being hidden. They discuss the financial behaviors and warning signs that may suggest concealed accounts, undisclosed transfers, understated income, support of another household, or financial preparation for divorce. The conversation also explores how bank, brokerage, credit, cryptocurrency, business, public record, and social media investigations can work together to reveal a more complete picture of the marital estate. Anthony shares what a private investigator can legally uncover, how evidence is documented and authenticated, and how investigative findings may assist attorneys, forensic accountants, financial professionals, mediators, and the court. Most importantly, Brooke and Anthony discuss how someone who feels frightened, financially overwhelmed, or uncertain about their suspicions can thoughtfully decide which investigative services may be worth the cost and which searches may add expense without producing meaningful evidence.
