In-depth background searches
Kay and Associates Investigations have powerful databases and specialized investigators to acquire real, relevant, and current information. We have the ability to do state-wide, national, and international background searches.
Avoid the cheap or free online background searches. The information found there is not only inaccurate most of the time, but often is outdated and misleading. When hiring our company for background search investigations, clients can expect professional and verified results.
What to expect from our background searches:
- Solid results with a fast turn-around
- Criminal, Domestic, Evictions, Divorce, Fraud, Assets, Credit, Judgements, Vehicle Liens, Defaults, etc.
- International capabilities with experienced detectives globally
- Find professional licenses, businesses, corporations, etc.
Reasons for Background Checks:
There are many reasons for requesting background checks. It may be for a variety of needs…
- Employment, in order to show identity verification
- Credit History, including Trade Lines and Bankruptcies
- Driving History
- Criminal Records, including current pending charges and Misdemeanors
- Education confirmation
- Find Alternate Social Security Numbers that someone may be illegally using
- Identification Fraud
- Brokerage Accounts
- Divorce and Marriage Records
- Evictions
In-depth Results: Our focus is on data quality. We don’t simply do address searches. We work with all of the information that the client has on hand, and find other possible routes of gathering further information that may be useful to our client. Of course, sometimes clients just want to find out to owns a specific property, so we simply run that info for them.
Other times, we are retained by law firms to handle all of their investigation and background search for cases. Pre-employment screening, high volume discounts, SSN tracing, are offered. We can watch lists are all services that we can. We can provide a full report upon request at the end of the investigation.
Detailed Evidence & Presentation:
Data findings may include many aspects of research. The first thing we do is to go over the findings with the client, going through the situation in detail. We consider the details, and depending on the findings, offer our client further options to obtain even more information. We then set a goal and decide how to approach it within the client’s budget.
We create a plan to get answers! After we fully understand your needs, the assigned private investigator who handles your case step-by-step will continually update you throughout the investigation. We provide all info to the client, and all info is destroyed upon termination of the case. Info storage options are available to our clients as well.
That really depends. For a basic background search where a client wants to know about any previous evictions, liens, bankruptcies, or potential criminal history, our turnaround time is generally about 2 to 3 days. For the in-depth background searches that include social media and hand search at different record agencies, we may need more time to get all of the results back and organized for assessment.
No, nothing we do will alert the person we doing a background search on that they are being investigated or searched.
How We Are Different From Online Background Search Companies
Many people who are interested in doing a background search look online and see companies that offer free or cheap information. This type of information has been complied by basic public records listed online. However, we focus on high quality data that we cross reference and judge according to case details. Just because it says that a person with the same name that you are searching for lives at a specific address, that does not mean it is true. There is a plethora of unchecked, wrong information that is posted online and not disreputable.
We know how to find someone’s true identity. By using verified databases and trustworthy information that require a license to access, we cross-reference , double-check, and verify information we find through other sources. This ensures the information we provide our clients is accurate, factual, and up-to-date. Also, the majority of the information we find and provide is not available on free or public online sites.
