On-Site Manual Searches by Argus Search Inc. 

Argus offers a variety of manual searches. These searches are performed at the court house by professionals, many of whom have paralegal certificates.

By ordering on-site manual checks, you are provided information resulting from arrests for Felony and Misdemeanor offenses. Felony offenses are usually punishable by serving at least one year in jail. Misdemeanors (less severe charges) usually result in a fine or jail time of less than one year. These records do not include expunged, sealed, or juvenile convictions.

Per FCRA regulations, you are required to obtain a signed release form from your applicant(s) prior to retrieving information about them. You should keep the release form on file for at least three years. We can provide one if necessary.
