Our Difference
The cornerstone of any enduring relationship is trust. Trust is best built on verified information. With those key things in mind, background checks can provide peace of mind in an uncertain world.
There are many websites that offer “background checks”, where they state that any and all information about a person is available. Unfortunately, this is false, as many fly-by-night private investigators and database companies only skim the surface of a subject’s personal history. Often times, unless a skilled investigator personally combs through the information, things such as criminal convictions, civil judgments and other important items are automatically removed because there is a minor conflict with a date of birth, alternative spelling of a last name, etc. Also, licensed private investigators have access to additional databases and understand that a true background check involves digging deeper to sometimes uncover something that a subject has tried very hard to cover up.
Some of the most common reasons we are contacted for thorough background checks are:
- New Personal Relationship or Pending Business Relationship
- A Family Member’s New Romantic Interest
- Prospective Employment / New Hires*
- Nannies / Daycare Providers and Residential Staff
- Elder Care Providers
