Public Records Research Paradigm Shifts as People and Businesses Broaden Their “Footprints” by Jean Halferty, Director of Product Planning for LexisNexis Public Records.

There’s been a major shift in how corporate researchers think about public records research. Fourteen years ago, What’s New when I began working with researchers in businesses and With LexisNexis Public Records law firms, they tended to think of the LexisNexis Public Copy Contact Information From Results to Working Records collection as a tool to search particular types of Drafts—in One Step documents, such as UCC filings, Secretary of State records, Find the business information or person you’re looking etc. Not only did researchers turn to specific document for?

Just click the (copy w/cite) icon next to each But times have changed. Interstate commerce is now results number. Record information is copied to a the norm, and higher regulatory standards mandate that clipboard—ready to paste. Even edit information businesses conduct more detailed due diligence. In fact, before pasting. corporations are not only required to conduct thorough research of the individuals and businesses they have More Phone Numbers … businesses relationships with—but they must thoroughly Now in the Alternate Phones resource—Real Time investigate potential partners even when contemplating a phone numbers.

Find landlines, cell phones, voice one geographic area. So now researchers must create a over Internet protocols and some beepers. nationwide roadmap of assets, liabilities and contacts across state lines and regional boundaries. Special Resources for Corporate Power Searchers How? There are two important requirements for a public Jean Halferty and the LexisNexis Public Records team records collection in order to meet those needs: have compiled several effective research resources to 1.

to “see past” data discrepancies/errors introduced by reporting agencies. The LexisNexis® SmartLinx® search technology, for example can: • Automatically account for spelling variations (Enter Smith and find Smyth too), name variations (John and Jonathan), and typographical errors (Pilgrim and Pilgram). • Search an area—and automatically include the surrounding radius in order to locate an individual. You can even adjust the range of this radius feature. • Link people and businesses that don’t even have public records in common. As research requirements evolve, LexisNexis Public Records offerings evolve in tandem. For example, researchers can search one resource that compiles the necessary sources, e.g., LexisNexis Comprehensive Person Search. And now, based upon customer request, Criminal and Employment records have been added to Comprehensive Reports. And to stay updated, researchers can set up an alert to monitor changes to an entity’s Comprehensive Report.

As research needs increase for more current data to locate individuals, LexisNexis continues to add additional information to the Alternate Phones resource. The most recent addition is Real Time phones, which includes Real Time phone numbers. Coverage includes 39 million records from all 50 states, D.C., all U.S. territories (Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, North Mariana Islands) and military addresses abroad (APO addresses). Also find some Canadian and Caribbean coverage, including numbers from the Bahamas, Dominican Republic and Grenada. Phone types include landlines, cell phones, voice over Internet protocols and some beepers.
