Available Public and Court Records:
CIVIL LAWSUITS: We search records of the Municipal, Superior, district or circuit state courts, or the United States District Courts, for lawsuits filed by or against the subject of your investigation. Courthouse lawsuit files can sometimes reveal a wealth of information regarding the subject’s activities, patterns and practices, business ethics, and admissions made in lawsuits filed by third parties.
CRIMINAL RECORDS: We search felony and misdemeanor records for accusations and convictions. We can provide you criminal conviction records, exoneration records, sentencing records, and when required, can summarize the actual contents of courthouse files, to determine the procedural history, admissions made, pleas entered and sentences imposed in criminal proceedings.
- Misdemeanor prosecutions can include, among other things, petty theft, assault and battery, employee dishonesty, shoplifting and certain drug-related offenses.
- Felony charges can include grand theft, sale and transportation of drugs, embezzlement, and armed robbery, among other more serious and/or violent crimes.
- A pre-hiring criminal background check can go a long way to establishing an employer’s due diligence in hiring an employee, when accusations of discriminatory or negligent hiring are made. We will need the applicant’s full name, aliases utilized, date of birth, and residential/business addresses to generate an accurate check.
- Federal courts (United States District Court) can also be screened for criminal prosecu-tions and convictions. Embezzlement, bank robbery, wire fraud and interstate drug trafficking cases are often prosecuted in the federal courts.
NATIONAL CRIMINAL WANTS & WARRANTS: Screen your employees and/or job applicants for outstanding extradition orders, wanted status or outstanding arrest warrants. Please note: Law enforcement may contact the requester to confirm your request.
BANKRUPTCIES, TAX LIENS, JUDGMENT(S): Search United States Bankruptcy Court records for bankruptcy filings. Search by county for tax liens; civil money judgments; foreclosures; notices of default, and unlawful detainer lawsuits. This search is sometimes done instead of running a consumer credit report.
PROFESSIONAL LICENSES: Verification of professional licenses claimed by a job applicant, including license type, date of issue, expiration date, and current status. In some instances, depending on the type of professional license, information is available regarding workers’ compensation and bond coverage. We will need the applicant’s name, any aliases utilized, the license type, the state, and, if available, the professional license number. This search will determine if the applicant’s professional license is authentic, active or suspended, and discover any complaints, suspensions, or revocations filed against the license.
BACKGROUND CHECKS: In an effort to end countless rounds of phone tag and long-distance calls, we provide our clients with the verifications they require, which frees up your time to focus on applicant recruitment, employee morale, and management tasks.
- Employment History Verification: We will verify employment at companies listed by your applicant. This check verifies dates of employment, position held, supervisor, last salary earned, eligibility for re-hire, and reason for leaving..We can check references as well. We will need your applicant’s full name, social security number, and fully completed employment application.
- Education/Academic Verification: Verifies the level of educational achievement, the place of education, type of degree, dates of attendance, and date of graduation. Please obtain the full name utilized by the applicant while attending school, his/her social security number, location of the school, year of graduation, and degrees/certificates received to ensure accurate results. Please note, occasionally the applicant’s signature may be required. Also, in some instances, this search may determine if a degree has been withheld due to financial obligations to the school.
- Personal References: Interviews with personal references provided by the applicant, including former fellow workers. Includes all information collected on the character of the applicant, based on the interaction with the references provided. This provides our clients with information as to how their applicants are perceived by others who know them, have worked with them, or who have done business with them.
