Employment Background Checks

Pre-employment screening that goes beyond database scrapes, including county court searches at the source.

FCRA-regulated: permissible-purpose review and consumer authorization apply before fulfillment.

What nationwide coverage means

  • Employer and background screening: we accept screening requests for candidates and applicants in every state. Records research reaches the jurisdictions relevant to each person, including county court searches at the source.
  • Drug testing: testing is coordinated through collection sites. Whether a site is convenient to a particular city or town is confirmed for each request.
  • Driving records (MVR): provided only after DPPA permitted-use review, and state rules apply.
  • Investigative support: what can be done depends on the jurisdiction and applicable licensing rules. Our agency is licensed in Tennessee (Tennessee Licensed Investigation Agency #3531 - #C545).
  • Our office: our only office is in Lebanon, Tennessee. We do not have offices in other cities.
