- First Advantage was retained by a public company
to assist in its defense in an unfair competition/antitrust
matter. We identified, screened, and interviewed
over 1,500 former employees of the plaintiff company.
Ultimately, we obtained affidavits from more than
20 of the former employees, enabling our client to
win a motion to dismiss certain claims and to bring
a counterclaim based on fraud by the plaintiff company.
- First Advantage located and interviewed hundreds
of former employees of a company suing our client.
We obtained numerous signed statements from witnesses
with information helpful to our client and, as a
result, the case settled in our client’s favor.
In fact, when the opponent’s trustee in bankruptcy
was required to defend the settlement to its creditors,
he specifically named a witness found and interviewed
by First Advantage and noted on the record that this witness's
potential trial testimony was a reason for the settlement.
- After our client brought a lawsuit against certain
corporate partners for fraud, First Advantage prepared
an affidavit showing that it was likely that relevant
information resided in free space on the opposition’s
hard drives. Using this affidavit, our client obtained
a court order to mirror image the defendants’ hard
drives. Two days after the order was issued, we had
imaged fifty drives and captured the information
sought by our client.
- We testified in federal court on behalf of a company
seeking to obtain a preliminary injunction to stop
the destruction of data by its opponent. After our
expert presented his testimony in court, the Judge
granted our client broad injunctive relief and found
that the opponent had intentionally destroyed relevant
documents. The judge indicated that an adverse inference
instruction would likely be given to the jury as
a sanction.
- In a large on-line credit card fraud investigation,
a First Advantage expert uncovered more than 100 fraudulent
Internet credit card purchase transactions and a
distribution network for the illegally purchased
goods.
