Security Clearance
Century Law Group specializes in handling security clearance hearings throughout California. We provide you with expert help, advice, and representation if you are seeking a security clearance from the federal government.
The process of obtaining a security clearance is a detailed, time-consuming one. The FBI completes a background investigation, in which they may interview your friends and acquaintances. They also examine your credit and criminal history. Aside from this, there are many record checks made by the FBI on each applicant, such as family member investigations, verification of biographical data, issues of citizenship, and education and employment history.
Completing the forms required to obtain a security clearance can also lead to many questions. The forms must be completed accurately and truthfully. Complex issues often arise concerning the completion of these forms.
If you have questions about security clearance matters, please do not hesitate to call Century Law Group. We are available to discuss individual cases in a confidential manner.
