What we do
We conduct discreet, in-depth background checks that go far beyond a basic records search. Our team verifies credentials, uncovers hidden risks, and provides a clear picture of an individual’s or entity’s history, reputation, and financial standing—helping you make informed decisions and mitigate exposure.
When it matters
- Pre-employment & executive vetting – Confirm resumes, work history, licenses, and reputations.
- Litigation support – Assess credibility of parties, witnesses, or experts.
- Corporate transactions – Evaluate counterparties, investors, and partners before committing capital.
- High-value personal matters – Pre-marital checks, family office due diligence, or high-net-worth individual vetting.
- Security clearance & risk screening – Identify red flags in sensitive roles or contracts.
- Tenant & landlord screening – Verify financial stability, prior evictions, or litigation history.
Our approach

- Reputation & media check – Adverse media, press coverage, digital footprint, and litigation exposure.
