Yes — but only within the limits of the law. At Universal Investigations Agency, we cannot access private call/text logs or wiretap conversations because thats illegal.

Yes. At Universal Investigations Agency, we can perform a detailed background investigation on businesses. Our reports can include corporate records, ownership details, financial history, lawsuits, liens, bankruptcies, and other public records to help you evaluate potential risks. We tailor the scope to your needs, so whether you just need a basic verification or a deep-dive investigation, we can provide the insight you need before moving forward.
Yes. At Universal Investigations Agency, we offer FCRA-compliant background screening services designed specifically for ongoing employment and tenant checks. These reports follow all federal regulations, require the subject’s consent, and typically include criminal history, address history, and Patriot Act searches. We can also set up accounts for businesses, property managers, or landlords who need to run screenings regularly, making the process fast, secure, and repeatable.
An FCRA-compliant report (used for jobs or housing) requires the person’s written consent and only includes limited information, like criminal records, address history, and certain security checks, with optional add-ons like credit or driving history. A deep national background report, on the other hand, does not require consent and provides much more detail — including criminal records, properties, vehicles, liens, bankruptcies, judgments, foreclosures, evictions, business ties, and more. The only thing it doesn’t include is credit history, since that always requires permission.
We are proud to be licensed in both Florida and Texas. We have locations in Austin, Miami, Hollywood, Boca Raton, Doral, and Fort Lauderdale.
