Obtain Criminal History
Understanding the background of an individual can be critical in ensuring the safety and well-being of loved ones. At The Investigators New Zealand, we specialise in obtaining criminal history information under specific circumstances, even when consent is not readily given. While generally, it is not possible to obtain someone’s criminal history without their consent, there are exceptions, particularly in cases involving family harm where the safety of individuals, especially children, is at risk.
Our private investigators are adept at navigating the legal processes required to apply for the release of criminal history information. In situations of family harm, there is a significant chance of success. The process begins with submitting a comprehensive application, which will be considered by the relevant authorities. This application period can take up to 28 days, during which the details and justification for the release of the information are thoroughly reviewed.
To support the application, it is essential to provide a detailed and chronological account of the situation. This includes information on the relationship in question, such as when and how the individuals met, the nature of their relationship, and any previous behaviors that raise concerns. For instance, if you are worried about the influence of a parent or partner on a child, it’s crucial to document any instances of alcohol or drug use, patterns of abusive behavior, and other relevant factors. These details help build a comprehensive case that illustrates the necessity of obtaining the criminal history for the safety and protection of those involved.
Detailing your intentions for potentially taking the matter to the Family Court can strengthen the application. Indicating a clear plan to seek legal measures if required demonstrates the seriousness of the situation and the commitment to protecting at-risk individuals. The Family Court can consider this thorough evidence when making decisions about interventions aimed at safeguarding family members.
At The Investigators New Zealand, we handle each case with the utmost confidentiality and professionalism. Our team is skilled in gathering and presenting detailed information that supports applications for the release of criminal history. We ensure that all legal procedures are meticulously followed, providing you with the necessary support and peace of mind.
