• Where can I find out if a background check investigates lawsuits?
  A background check can vary in scope, and it is important to understand what specific information it covers. If your primary interest is in lawsuits, you should review the details of the background check service to determine whether it includes civil court records. Many background checks focus primarily on criminal history, so it is essential to confirm with the provider whether they search for civil lawsuits as well. To find out about lawsuits, you can directly contact the background check company to inquire about the specific courts and types of records they search. Additionally, you can access court records through the websites of local courthouses, which typically provide public services and contact information for clerks. Many courts allow you to search for cases online, and you can also visit the courthouse in person to request copies or view records. Each court may have different procedures for accessing records, so it is advisable to check their website for details on access regulations, forms, and hours of operation.
