ADP Background Report Errors Lawyer
When ADP’s Background Check Mistakes Cost You a Job, Our ADP Background Report Error Lawyers Are Here To Fight For You!
Many employers rely on ADP Screening & Selection Services to perform background checks during the hiring process. Unfortunately, ADP’s reports are not always accurate. When ADP includes false, outdated, or misleading information, job offers can be withdrawn, reputations can be damaged, and careers can be derailed.
At Weiner & Sand LLC, we represent individuals who have suffered harm because of ADP’s background check errors. Our attorneys use the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) to hold ADP and other background reporting agencies accountable when they fail to meet their legal obligations.
Common ADP Background Check Problems
ADP markets itself as a trusted background screening company, but mistakes happen frequently. Some of the most common issues include:
- Mismatched criminal records — reports showing arrests or convictions belonging to someone else
- Old or expunged charges that should have been removed
- Incomplete or incorrect employment and education history
- Duplicate or inconsistent entries that make applicants appear unreliable
- Failure to correct errors after a consumer dispute
These errors can make a qualified candidate appear dishonest or risky to an employer — a direct violation of the FCRA’s requirement to ensure “maximum possible accuracy.”
Your Rights Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act
The Fair Credit Reporting Act protects job seekers and employees from unfair background screening practices. Under the FCRA, ADP Screening & Selection Services must:
- Use reasonable procedures to ensure the accuracy of all information reported
- Provide you with a copy of your report and a Summary of Your Rights before an employer takes adverse action
- Give you an opportunity to dispute inaccurate or incomplete information
- Conduct a prompt reinvestigation and correct any verified errors
- Notify the employer of all corrections or updates to your file
When ADP fails to meet these obligations, you may have the right to bring a lawsuit and recover compensation.
What Compensation Can You Recover?
If ADP’s background check errors caused you to lose a job or suffer financial or emotional harm, you may be entitled to:
- Actual damages for lost income and emotional distress
- Statutory damages up to $1,000 per violation
- Punitive damages for willful or reckless misconduct
- Attorney’s fees and legal costs
Our firm handles these cases on a contingency fee basis, so you owe nothing unless we win money for you.
