They may be utilized in the normal course of business by legitimate entities or their agents, employees, or contractors, but only to verify the accuracy of personal information provided by the individual.

Strategic Intelligence for a Law Firm

A prominent law firm representing a technology startup faced an unexpected legal threat: a former executive was alleging wrongful termination and intellectual property theft. Spade & Archer R&D was engaged to provide detailed intelligence on the former executive's employment history, social media activity, and professional network. By conducting a deep investigation into publicly available data and leveraging specialized industry sources, Spade & Archer R&D identified a pattern of previous disputes and found that the executive had a track record of leveraging similar claims against past employers. This information proved instrumental in negotiating a favorable settlement for the firm, allowing them to resolve the matter quickly and maintain their client’s reputation without litigation.

Personal Privacy & Asset Protection for a High-Net-Worth Client

A high-net-worth client suspected that a business partner was secretly diverting shared assets. The client approached Spade & Archer R&D to discreetly assess the situation. By employing forensic accounting techniques and monitoring digital footprints, the team traced several hidden transactions and discovered a network of shell companies linked to the partner.
