How to Locate Parties' Social Media Connections

By J. Benjamin Stevens

Social media sites can be valuable sources of information in Family Court cases.  Frankly, it is simply amazing sometimes to see the types of information people publish about themselves and their actions on these sites.  However, in today's web-laden society, it's hard to know where to start looking sometimes to find all of a party's networks.

Flowtown can prove useful in helping you identify this type of information.  Here's how it works – simply submit an email address to Flowtown and it generates a report listing every social network it can find with a member using that email address. It works fast, and best of all, it's free!  It can find accounts on Linkedin, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Flickr, Plaxo, Classmates, Amazon, YouTube, Pandora, StumbleUpon, and several others.  You can try it out by clicking here.
