Social Security Trace (Identity Verifications)

Criminal Court Records

Provides criminal court records search for all convictions to date and the previous seven (7) years of criminal activity or arrests. Our researchers physically search court records, comparing personal identifiers to accurately report criminal history.  Case details for felony, misdemeanor, ordinance violation, and DUI records within the current and past counties where the applicant has resided.  Because most crimes are committed in the county where the offender has lived and/or worked, a county criminal record search is essential to any criminal record background check and is recommended for all applicants as part of the pre-employment screening process. We have access to all 3,144 U.S. counties and county equivalents.  Our reports include a case number, date of offense, filing date, charge(s), type of charge and outcome.  These types of searches take the longest amount of time because of the verification of case details. Approximately 24-72 hours.

Federal District Criminal Courts

Provides arrest and conviction information prosecuted by the U.S. District Courts. 

Driving Records

This search reveals an individual’s driving record with the state's Department of Motor Vehicles.  Hiring a poor driver opens your organization up to increased liability and can raise your insurance premiums.  As a result, motor vehicle record checks are being requested more often by insurance companies before employees are permitted to operate company vehicles. Information supplied varies by state, but typically includes driving history, license type, infractions, and driving restrictions.
