In today’s fast-moving world, information is everywhere—but reliable information is harder to find than ever. Whether you’re hiring a key employee, entering a business partnership, navigating a legal dispute, or protecting your family, the decisions you make rely heavily on the quality of the information you have.
That’s where deep background checks come in.
At Bearden Investigative Agency, we believe that informed decisions require more than a quick database search. Our deep background investigations uncover hidden details, verify facts, and reveal the full picture—empowering clients to move forward with clarity and confidence.
What Makes a Background Check “Deep”?
Most people are familiar with standard background checks: automated reports that pull criminal records, address history, or employment verification. While valuable, these reports often tell only a small part of the story.
A deep background check goes far beyond that, combining:
✔️ Comprehensive database research
Pulling federal, state, and local records; civil filings; liens; judgments; UCC filings; and more.
✔️ Public records + non-database resources
Not everything appears in online databases. Investigators dig through court archives, property records, business filings, and government documents.
✔️ Social media & digital footprint analysis
Online behavior, affiliations, and publicly available posts can reveal patterns, risks, or inconsistencies.
✔️ Interviews and source inquiries
When appropriate, investigators speak with former colleagues, neighbors, associates, or professional references—providing context that a report alone can’t offer.
✔️ Professional investigator insight
Algorithms find data. Investigators interpret it. Experienced analysts connect the dots, identify red flags, and spot information most people would overlook.
Why Deep Background Checks Matter
- Protecting Your Business
A bad hire or a dishonest partner can cost a company far more than the price of an investigation. Deep background checks uncover issues like past fraud, undisclosed financial problems, conflicts of interest, or patterns of misconduct.
- Avoiding Legal and Financial Risks
Surface checks might miss civil complaints, lawsuits, or financial liabilities that could directly impact your case or business decisions.
- Verifying Identity and Credentials
In an age of résumé inflation and fabricated qualifications, a deep investigation ensures that a person is who they claim to be—and has actually done what they say.
- Strengthening Legal Cases
Attorneys often rely on deep background checks to evaluate witnesses, opposing parties, or claimants. Thorough insights can shift the direction of a case.
- Protecting Personal Safety
From online dating to personal security concerns, individuals use deep background checks to ensure they’re not stepping into a dangerous or deceptive situation.
What You Gain With a Deep Background Check
A deep background investigation gives you:
- Clarity — removing uncertainty.
- Security — identifying risks before they become problems.
- Confidence — ensuring your decisions are based on verified information.
- Peace of mind — knowing professionals have uncovered everything possible.
