ASI’s Instant Multi-State Criminal History Search package:
ASI  Background Checks. offers a Multi-State Criminal Search, Social Trace, National Sex Offenders Registry, Patriot Acts Database, Office of Foreign Assets and Control (OFAC) and a host of other data sources which can contain a wealth of criminal information undisclosed by an applicant. The Multi-State Criminal Search contains record information representing over 90% of the population, covering 50 states and three territories, searching over 300 million records. The Multi-State Criminal Search is an effective “pre-screen” tool which, combined with a jurisdiction criminal history search, identifies criminal history records that otherwise would never be discovered.  This Multi-State Criminal Database Search is a compilation of several hundred industry-leading sources. Please note, this search does not include every court jurisdiction in every state. However, many times criminal records are revealed in states where the applicant gave no indication of his prior residence.  This service generally should not be used as a substitute for county-level criminal searches. Rather, it offers an additional level of due diligence by expanding the geography of a criminal search beyond a current county or seven year county search program.
 
Search Result: In the event that a criminal conviction or "hit" is found, the report will contain the case number, full case name, date of birth, file date, disposition date and number of years searched for each criminal case that is found. We will also detail the method(s) used to match the applicant to the defendant, such as Name and Date of Birth; Name, Date of Birth and SSN; or Name Only. Finally, we will provide details for each charge included in the case, including description of each count, disposition, type of crime, any fines assessed by the court, any court fees assessed, and probation or prison time ordered. Additional information available will also be provided to you. You may need to run a county criminal background check for greater detail.
 
ASI Full Disclosure Background Investigations:
When you must have a comprehensive “deep dive” investigation of an individual to gain full disclosure of their background so you’re confident the interests of  your business are fully protected, an ASI “Full Disclosure Background Investigation” is the vehicle that will get you to that level  of due diligence.  What differentiates ASI’s screening process from other online background investigations is that you’re request for service is assigned to and managed by a highly experienced Investigator, not a computer based search engine. ASI Investigator’s will take a “Best Practices” approach in making sure no stone is left unturned in the effort to understand exactly who you are dealing with.  While your Investigator will utilize the full capabilities of ASI’s extensive research tools, It is a true “eyes on” investigative effort which evaluates the comprehensive research collected and presents it in an understandable format that can be put to beneficial use.  Our Full Disclosure Background Investigations are billed at an hourly rate so you receive the greatest cost-benefit ratio for the services we render.  Turnaround time is dependent on several different factors, one simply being how much you already know about the person.  However, on average you can expect a final report within 10 to 15 business days from when the investigation is initiated.

Single Menu Items

Statewide Criminal Background History
Not all states allow public access to statewide criminal records information. Some allow online access, while others require written application forms. Fees vary, and access may require a specific authorization form and/or specific identifying information such as full name, address, date of birth, social security number, and county of residence.

Information provided by a statewide record system may be incomplete due to limited date ranges or the limited number of courts and offenses for which records are maintained. “Offender” or “inmate” searches are generally limited to individuals who were sentenced to state prison. Criminal records checks include convictions and sometimes arrests. Child abuse registry checks can reveal if a person was named in a report, but registry checks are not available in all states.
 
 
County Criminal Record Search
This is a search for county level or misdemeanor and felony criminal records. These County Courthouse searches are conducted manually by our team of over 1500+ local county researchers. Through our extensive network of researchers, we can search county criminal records for most U.S. states. County Courthouse searches are the most accurate type of search available, due to the fact that Some states do not provide Statewide criminal records searches, county searches are the only option.
Results in 1 - 3 business days*.
Note: Due to researchers schedules, time of order, courthouse hours or procedures, search results normally take 1-3 business days. On occasion, results can be delayed.
 
Federal District Search:
Federal criminal searches report information from federal district courts and contain only specific high-level, white-collar crimes and crimes that cross state lines.
 
National Wants & Warrants

National Wants and Warrants Search searches for outstanding wants and warrants, generally those of which are issued for extraditable offenses. Law enforcement agencies are actively seeking these individuals.  The confusion between FBI Background Check or NCIC Database Search and a National Wants and Warrants Search sometimes leads to the myth that National Wants and Warrants Search is illegal.  It is not illegal.  As an essential part of any Comprehensive Background Check, we recommend this search in conjunction with local county criminal record checks, for all applicants undergoing a criminal record check. This search allows for employer protection from individuals who have outstanding warrants or attempting to hide their criminal record.
