What this API enables

The Deepvue Court Record Check API enables organizations to:

Search by name and address

Submit a name and address over REST and get back court-record matches, no per-court portal scraping.

Triage on one consistent cutoff

Set a single threshold to auto-clear low matches and route only high-risk ones to a reviewer.

Build a case-level review screen

Render the court, acts, and sections behind each match so a reviewer decides without reopening the portal.

Tighten matching with optional inputs

Pass dob and father_name alongside name and address to raise name_match_type accuracy.

Add litigation signals to underwriting

Layer court-record risk into lending and vendor decisions without a separate review queue.

Stand up to a compliance review

Show where each match originated, so an auditor can confirm screening was lawful and defensible.

How the API works

From identity submission to structured legal-risk output in four steps.

Submit identity inputs

Submit name and address through a secure API request. DOB and father's name can be provided where available.

Run screening

The request is processed through authorized partner integrations and vendor-supported screening mechanisms.

Identify matches

Potential court-record matches are identified, scored, and structured into risk signals.

Return response

A structured response is returned for downstream review and decision workflows.

Outputs should be used as supporting signals within broader BGV, underwriting, or compliance workflows, not as standalone adjudication.

Name in. Legal-risk signals out.

Court record screening designed for BGV, lending, and compliance pipelines.
