Background Investigations:

Q) Why should I conduct a background investigation?

A) There are several reasons for conducting a background investigation. If you’re a business that is hiring a new employee, the low cost of conducting a background check is negligible compared to the staggering cost of a negligent hiring lawsuit. If you’re a private individual, you and your family are your most valuable assets. Protect them by knowing whom you are dealing with in both personal and business relationships.

Q) Is it legal?

A) We are fully compliant with all legal standards and provide you with FCRA compliance packages to ensure that all local, state and federal regulations are followed. In addition we can provide the necessary adverse action notifications if requested by you.

Q) How can I place an order?

A) We try to accommodate each of our client’s individual needs. You can process search requests either through our online ordering system, by email, fax or regular mail. Requests are not processed by phone.

Q) How can I receive my results?

A) With our technology you may obtain your reports directly from our website. If you prefer they can also be emailed, faxed or mailed to you.

Q) How long does it take to receive a background report?

A) Depending on the searches ordered, the average turnaround time for reports is generally 4-72 hours. Special requests, in-depth comprehensive backgrounds, subjects with numerous records and areas with noted court delays may take slightly longer.

Locates:

Q) What information do I need to find someone?

A) A social security number is the easiest way to find someone but is not always available. We can locate people by name, address, telephone number and various other identifiers. Please provide as much information as you have to our investigator when placing your request.

Q) Will you give me the person’s name and phone number when you find them?

A) For private individuals looking for a lost friend or relative, our policy is to contact the person you are trying to locate and obtain permission from them to release their information. If they refuse we provide them with your contact information to use at their discretion.
