When you are ready to hire individuals for your business, it important to screen them properly and thoroughly.
Drug tests, criminal records, driving records, education, and credit checks can be more controversial after a hire, so it’s a good idea to check before hiring.
Martin Investigative Services processes pre-hire background checks for you, and former supervisory Federal agents review all results.
We often turn up information on applicants that other companies and services don’t catch.
I have used Martin Investigative Services since returning to the practice of law. Their work is first rate! Their reports are reliable, and if called upon to testify, Martin’s investigators are well prepared and extremely professional.

Here’s what you need to know:
A background check is essential when finding someone of the right fit for your company.
However, according to the Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, you are required to get the potential employee’s permission before obtaining records.
Most employers will obtain education, military service and medical records.
The rest is up to us. We will contact past employers to help you determine if the potential employee is right for your company and do background checks as well.
And we do so with professionalism and the appropriate authorization.
If you are an employer, consider doing pre-screening for all employees before you hire, to avoid the appearance of favoritism.
Let us take the lead here, as we know the best way to process pre-hire background checks.
We have the experience, professionalism, and know-how to take your pre-employment and employment screening process to the next level – providing thorough, complete investigations.
Our staff is comprised of former supervisory-level Federal agents (from agencies including DEA, FBI, IRS, and Secret Service).
We have compiled the largest database of public information in the United States, and we can identify assets and accounts across the globe, when others often cannot.
Former DEA, FBI, IRS, and Secret Service agents personally review the results of your background checks and go over them with you.
We provide quality background investigation services with an unmatched success rate. We provide you with confidence and peace of mind.
Sometimes local records must be reviewed in person. We have a national network of experienced private investigators to do this.

A private party met with us in our Mission Viejo office, and wanted to investigate a candidate running for political office.
Our private investigators ran a thorough background check and performed surveillance.
We discovered that the subject was not living in the district in which he was running, and that he was having an affair.
As a result, this person dropped out of the race.

Scary?
Yes it is – a person’s cellphone number is the new social security number, according to Thomas G. Martin, President of Martin Investigative Services and former agent with the Federal Department of Justice.

What’s a typical day like?
A typical day for me can be spent dealing with locating friends and family, performing surveillance on cheating spouses, providing advice on personal and corporate security or investigating on artist and business scams.

“Predators know where to find prey,” says Thomas G. Martin, private investigator and former federal agent with the U.S. Department of Justice. “To a con artist, dating sites are a huge pool of potential marks putting themselves out there, looking for love [and] sometimes a little too willing to suspend disbelief and common sense.”
