A Passion For Quick and Complete Results
Simply trying to offer his students on-the-job internship training, professor and college dean Jonathan Kraut became a state licensed private investigator in 1997. In 1998, overwhelmed with new national accounts, he finally traded in the classroom to lead an organization where he could practice what he had preached.
Having 20 years experience as an investigator and pre-employment screener with organizations to include the U.S. Army, aerospace manufacturing and design facilities, job placement and training services, and a national trade association, Jonathan established several basic practices that continue to give Net Check Investigations clients an advantage to this day:
- All searches are performed by a live agent who has the training and good judgment to use reason and creativity to locate, verify, and interpret case information.
- Reports and findings are re-written and summarized to be easily read by those without formal legal training.
- All requests are processed and completed within one business day when possible.
- Each client is assigned one agent to oversee all activities and communications so that a client can get the latest information at any time from someone who knows the status of each search.
- The cost of services remain low due to high volume and high efficiency

Live Searches vs “Instant Background Checks”
Live vs. Static Searches
“Instant background checks” results often provide no protection from liability if a criminal case is missed: as much as 70% of criminal cases are not included in these “Instant” search databases. Also, variations in name, dates of birth, or deception on the part of the applicant often result in missing important findings.
The problem with on-line data searches are that they:
- Do not search using AKAs or variations of dates of birth
- Contain less than 70% of nation’s criminal cases
- Are posted periodically, monthly or quarterly (not current)
- Do not generate complete criminal abstracts or histories
- Rarely contains warrants or new/pending cases
- Often do not meet the legal requirements to deny employment without further verification
- Do not present results on an official document (letterhead
