Protect our clients' hires with accurate, current, compliant records.
We built Information Direct on a simple premise: if the law says the employer is accountable for the report they rely on, then the report had better come from the primary source. The vast majority of online background checks do not. We do.
Today we cover all 50 U.S. states, operate an international researcher network, and offer a complete screening menu, all backed by ISO 27001 information security and FCRA/EEOC compliance built into every workflow.
Two decades of courthouse research.
A paralegal touches every report.
Here is what happens from the moment you submit an order to the moment a compliant report lands in your ATS.
Six things that change the work.
Paralegals, not scrapers
Trained paralegals pull records from clerks. Disputed records drop because the underlying data is right the first time.
National courthouse footprint
200+ vetted researchers across every U.S. county we cover. Direct access, no brokered data.
24 to 48 hour turnaround
Rush panels in 12 hours. Real SLAs, not theoretical ones.
Compliance in the workflow
FCRA adverse action kits, EEOC-aligned record handling, state rules encoded, not bolted on.
