We proudly offer True Background ScreeningSM, which provides the most comprehensive criminal background check available.

Our investigative and screening services will provide you with the facts necessary to aid you in your decision making process.

The McDowell Agency, Inc. takes the position that database searches can be very useful, but only when used in conjunction with a record search done at the county level. Database search products are dangerously inadequate and guaranteed to be incomplete; we hold the position that selling them as a stand-alone service is insufficient. The McDowell Agency, Inc. provides True Background ScreeningSM, which combines the database with a county criminal record search to create the most comprehensive criminal background check available. We also believe that we are dealing with not just information, but people's lives and futures. This is a commitment we take very seriously. We will not release the results of a criminal background search until they have been reviewed by a licensed private investigator.

Our experienced staff is committed to providing you with superior, accurate results while maintaining our goal of creating the highest quality client experience. Utilizing efficient technology and resources, our average turnaround time is less than 48 hours. Our account representatives work with their clients to design and implement programs and packages that will meet each client's unique needs.
