Background checks

We deal with background checks in Romania since 1991. We came to learn that, while manyrecords are public (free or paid access), the same many are deeply buried in the vaults of the“unknown database” , i.e. they are still free and public (which is good from a legal point of view),but it takes a good investigator with a relentless wish and determination to “dig & sift”.

This is what we usually are after and (usually) deliver to our clients in form of professionalreports, seconded by hard facts and proofs, exactly what is expected professionally speakingfrom a background check in Romania.

Civil litigation

Criminal Records

Corporate Affiliations

Judgments, Liens and Bankruptcies

Tax Courts

Employment history

Educational credentials

Professional licenses and affiliations

Local and national media and Internet

Assets and properties

Driving records

Getting your facts clean and legal, this is what we endeavor to achieve for a background checkin Romania; clean, so our client doesn’t have to chase the same vector again and again, gettingfrustrated by lots of money paid for nil or usable results, and legal…well, it does pay to haveeverything tucked away nicely inside a legal boundary, when the case hits the court (and italmost always does, don’t you know).

CV & ID verifications

We take very seriously the verification of an individual, when it comes toidentity confirmation.This is why our CD & ID verifications in Romania aresuccessful and our clients are very satisfied with the results obtained inthe last 24 years since we started this type of service. Any identityverification service ranging from basic to comprehensive is bound to beconsidered the key to any background research. Sometimes, a wrongdetail in a CV may signal a red flag, ranging from small lies, up to plainidentity theft.

In order to do so, we start to dig and sift through all national and localdatabases, visiting the former/current employment place, discuss withformer employers and supervisors, work colleagues, neighbors, collectingreferences, chat with local DWP (Dept of Work and Pensions), tax office,local constabulary, visiting the local GP or neighborhood clinics, even withthe local priest (you would be surprised).

In the same time, we uncover and collect any data which may provide uswith hard facts and solid copies of key documents; where we cannot getthese legally by ourselves, we do get them by using of the InformationRelease form, signed by the candidate.

These here are the main tasks when we deal with an identity check case inRomania. However, this list is not nailed, we are always happy to work with ourclients in order to get a custom-tailored work frame and / a bespoke project.

Trademark & brand protection

Trademark infringement : unauthorized use of a trademark or service mark on or inconnection with goods and/or services in a manner that is likely to cause confusion,deception, or mistake about the source of the goods and/or services.

By and large, it can be considered a violation of the exclusive rights attached to atrademark without the authorization of the trademark owner or any licensees (providedthat such authorization was within the scope of the license). Infringement may occur whenone party, the "infringer", uses a trademark which is identical or confusingly similar to atrademark owned by another party, in relation to products or services which are identicalor similar to the products or services which the registration covers.

One of the most important assets of a modern company is its intellectual property.Competitors and employees alike recognize this. Problems arise when misguided peopletake it upon themselves to benefit from the work of others, without proper compensation orpermission.

Usually, management learns of an intellectual property problem when an employeeseparates from the company, a new competitor surfaces, or a competitor makesunexpected gains. Most of the time, the Victim Company has little information, a lot ofsuspicions, and little time to resolve the issues.

Eurosurveillance CI Romania can help get the information necessary to formulate anappropriate response, whether it is civil litigation, successful criminal prosecution, or anamicable settlement with the offending party. Eurosurveillance CI Romania will gatherevidence, take statements, and develop sources of information that allow our clients toprevail in these difficult cases. These here are considered the best approach when we areinstructed to look into a possible trademark infringement:

A brand owner suspects that its products are infringed upon or counterfeited and thereforehires us to visit some stores or showrooms, speak to salespeople, determine who the ownerof the store is and ascertain the scope of the infringing or counterfeit activity;

Before or after commencing an action against an infringer or counterfeiter, a brand ownerhires us to take pictures of a store window displaying infringing or counterfeit goods, to buyinfringing or counterfeit goods and to speak with sales representatives in order to assess howthey present the products to consumers;

After commencing an action against an infringer or counterfeiter, discovery is difficult and abrand owner has difficulties getting the requested documentation. The brand owner, therefore,hires us to visit defendant’s stores, speak to defendant’s salespeople and recordconversations with defendant’s low-level employees in order to gather evidence as todefendant’s representations to consumers regarding the infringing or counterfeit goods.

Our experience and success in pursuing these cases, in civil as well as criminal venues, isindispensable to clients who face these issues. With our help of investigating the matter, andwith the help of subsequent litigation support, we achieve and obtain the following, on our clientbehalf:

a court order (injunction) that the defendant stop using the accused mark;

an order requiring the destruction or forfeiture of infringing articles;

monetary relief, including defendant's profits, any damages sustained by the plaintiff, and thecosts of the action;

an order that the defendant, in certain cases, pay the plaintiffs' attorneys' fees.

We know how much a brand or product owner can lose when these are attacked, so do give usthe opportunity to help and put things right.

advancements, creating false documents is becoming easier, making it more difficult to determine document

authenticity.
