Background Checks

Our capabilities extend to conducting background checks on individuals worldwide, whether they are native to the USA or born abroad. Additionally, we offer monthly monitoring services, alerting clients if the individual in question appears on any global list or accrues a criminal record. Depending on the privacy laws of the respective countries, we can furnish clients with comprehensive details about the individual.

Want to know what the INTERPOL has on file about you? We can get this information for $3,500

Why is it so expensive?
We manually have to request this information from INTERPOL via internationally traceable certified mail. Sometimes there is correspondence back and forth between the agency and us to obtain this. The entire process nowadays can take up to 4 months and we also have to work with a law firm who can correspond on our behalf in Lyon, France with INTERPOL HQ. This is one of the hardest information to obtain on any individual but it is possible with Edwin Atherton.

“Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.”
