When hiring vendors and contractors, companies often search civil complaints to understand if there is a history of performance issues. Civil searches can also be useful for identifying risky applicants who may have a history of repeated complaints that have not resulted in criminal charges.
HR Reco provides the most comprehensive civil court record searches and litigation background checks available, helping employers identify applicants with risky or excessive civil records or judgments. To do this, HR Reco searches county court records—digitally and in some cases manually—as well as federal civil settlements — wherever the applicant has been known to reside for the past decade.
Civil cases commonly uncovered include:
Lawsuits
Paternity suits
Domestic disputes
Restraining orders
