Personal Background Checks

When you want to know the inside facts. And, who out there knows you?

People have all sorts of motivations. Most of them are good, some of them are not so good.

Martin Investigative Services

By doing personal background checks you can find vital information about your friends, neighbors or even a potential employer. Turn-around is fair play, isn’t it? By doing your homework early you could save yourself a lot of heartache later.

By using legal and public databases that we have full access to, you can learn a lot more about the people around you and also, what those people may know about you!

Consider for a moment that you’ve been talking to someone online and they want to meet you for dinner. Do you really know that person beyond your personal chat room? It’s dangerous. So, do a background check. It’s easy and it could save your life.

Other areas to consider for personal background checks for include:

  • Family history – good and bad.
  • Find business and home numbers – people move, things change.
  • Locate prisoner and sentencing files – for hiring purposes?
  • Identity Theft – who has stolen your records?
  • Court Records/Marriage Records – do you know the whole truth and nothing but?
  • Spouses’s background – scary to ask, but if you have doubts?
  • Find old friends – surprise those friends you thought were lost.
  • Locate death certificates – for family trust issues.
  • Driving records – are you hiring a personal driver?
  • Public file of your own records – is everything as it should be?
  • Check schools, day cares and live-in babysitters – get only the best for your family.
  • Predators in your neighborhood - the most important check of all.
  • Military friends you might like to find – lifelong friendships deserve a look-up.
  • Businesses/Contractors that may have to work in your home – who is that guy?
