Start 2026 With Smarter Screening

The start of a new year is a natural time to take a hard look at how you protect your business, your properties, and your reputation. For many employers and landlords, background screening has been on autopilot for years—same vendor, same reports, same assumptions.

But as we move into 2026, that “good enough” approach is exactly what’s costing businesses time, money, and peace of mind.

At Western Verify, we see it every day: critical information that other reporting agencies miss—and consequences that could have been avoided with deeper, more accurate screening.

Why “Basic” Screening Isn’t Enough Anymore

Many background screening companies rely heavily on instant databases and surface-level checks. While those reports may be fast, they often miss the details that matter most.

We regularly uncover:

• Criminal activity that never appears in database-only searches
• Incomplete or misleading employment histories
• Income discrepancies and fabricated documentation
• Identity issues that raise serious red flags

These aren’t rare exceptions. They’re real-world issues that lead to bad hires, costly evictions, legal exposure, and unnecessary stress.

Western Verify specializes in in-depth, court-level screening designed to uncover what others overlook. Your decisions deserve real data—not shortcuts.

Catching What Other Reporting Agencies Miss

Not all background checks are created equal. The difference is in how the search is performed and who is reviewing the results.

Our screening process includes:

• County-level criminal searches instead of database shortcuts
• Identity and verification checks built for today’s remote world
• Manual review by trained professionals—not just automated systems

This extra diligence is exactly why clients switch to Western Verify after being burned elsewhere. They don’t come to us because something went right—they come because something important was missed.

Real People. Real Support.

One of the biggest frustrations we hear from new clients is how hard it is to get help from their current provider. Endless tickets. Long hold times. No clear answers.

At Western Verify, live customer service is standard—not an upgrade.

When you call or email, you reach real people who understand background screening, compliance, and urgency. Whether you need help interpreting a report, navigating adverse action, or customizing a screening package, our team is here to help.

Built for Compliance in a Changing Landscape

Screening laws continue to evolve, and 2026 is no exception. State-by-state reporting limits, adverse action rules, and FCRA compliance requirements make it risky to rely on outdated processes.

Western Verify stays ahead of these changes so you don’t have to. Our solutions are built with compliance at the core—helping protect your organization while still delivering the information you’re legally allowed to use.

Make the Change for 2026

A new year is the perfect time to ask one simple question:

Is your current screening provider truly protecting you—or just checking a box?

If you’re ready for:

• Deeper, more accurate screening
• Fast 24–48 hour turnaround times
• Live, knowledgeable customer service
• A partner that catches what others miss

Then 2026 is the right time to make a change.

At Western Verify, we don’t believe in cutting corners. We believe in doing background screening the right way—so you can make confident decisions from day one.

Start the new year with clarity, compliance, and confidence.
