The attorneys and law firms Checkers work with come to us with a myriad of scenarios where background checks and due diligence arise as a prudent form of risk management in both transactional and litigation contexts. Some of the most common include investor diligence for Mergers and Acquisitions practices, background checks on sellers, buyers, founders, principals and/or key employees and entity diligence to identify civil litigation and media involving the subject entity. We are key in creating strong foundations for ongoing relationships, providing know-your-client due diligence and diligence for pre-hiring, promotion, investigation or retention of employees, independent contractors and vendor entities. We also providing vetting of potential affiliates, spokespeople, or others prior to and during the relationship to ensure compliance with morality clauses and monitoring for compliance with non-disparagement provisions or other restrictive covenants.
Our clients also routinely use our diligence services to advance opportunities and the interests of firm clients. We provide valuable litigation support such as opposition research on named plaintiffs (individuals and entities), defense preparation, qualification of settlement class members and vetting of prospective judges, jurors, experts and witnesses, often on an extremely short timeline.
