Mesa, AZ-based Crimshield has Promoted Denny Dobbins as General Legal Counsel
About the Company
CrimShield was created by a team of Private Investigators and Attorneys who were tired of seeing criminals have access into the personal lives of their clients through their homes, businesses, or the internet. A CrimShield membership indicates an individuals desire to live a crime free lifestyle. We have developed an exclusive 7 point validation system to help ensure that the individuals who apply with us are legitimately crime-free. An extensive review of each applicant's background includes data taken directly from court records and various other sources. We do not search outdated databases. Our systematic investigations include sex offender registries, inmate records, felonies, violent misdemeanors and much more. We are the #1 online profile verification company in the nation. How often does CrimShield update someone's criminal record and what if they commit a crime after your search? CrimShield updates member records annually using the same extensive background check that was initially performed. If there has been a change in the qualifications of a member due to criminal or fraudulent behavior, the member will receive a denial letter and their membership will be cancelled immediately. Many criminal cases take months or even years to resolve. If CrimShield discovers a pending case against a current member, the member will be denied access to the system until the case is complete and an outcome is reported. CrimShield also welcomes member and general public comment on any inappropriate behavior by a current CrimShield member. Our investigators will research valid reports and update the database as needed. Remember, CrimShield uses only current information from regularly updated sources. We rely on the honesty and accountability of our members to live a crime-free lifestyle. There is no better process.
