View Criminal Search Disclosure and Search Method 

Criminal Background Reports are especially important when you have someone in your home and caring for your most valuable asset (your children). You cannot spend too much time or money to ensure that you have done everything possible to keep your children safe. And, at $19.95 for a Statewide Criminal Search, there's just no excuse not to run one on every applicant. By doing so you have done your best available to protect your family and loved ones. The best defense is to show that you used the "Best Available Means" to check the applicant's background prior to approving the prospective sitter, nanny or day care provider's application.

Screening your sitter, nanny or day care provider carefully includes running a Criminal Background Report during the application approval process. When your own a company, remember that once you adopt any policy as a part of your approval process, you must do the same things, run the same checks etc. on EVERY applicant. Not to, might be considered a form of discrimination. All professional business owners charge an application fee to offset the cost of properly screening each applicant too.

Then there's the importance of knowing the criminal backgrounds of your employees, contractors, handy or repair people, cleaning persons, etc. Let's face it... in today's world; you just can't be too careful. Take comfort in really knowing whom you are allowing into your home, office, or properties. There's no excuse not to check everyone.

You can search for more detailed records by doing a Statewide Criminal search for AL, CA, NM, ND, and SD.

We recommend that you also run a Basic Background Check (includes a national criminal search) because many people are transient and may have criminal records in other states. Often applicants conveniently forget to tell you about other states they have resided in.

We offer an all-inclusive product, which provides access to criminal data from 42 states where more than 74 percent of the nation's population lives (currently over 79 million-offense records from over 55 million offenders.) The other 9 states have county records available for all counties. Checking your applicant’s criminal background in the current state only is not enough. Your applicant could have convictions in other states that go undisclosed. This is why a search of this scope is your best defense. To read about county criminal searches, click here.
