Negligent Hiring Lawsuits have been devastating for many businesses — and they could cost you millions of dollars. Negligent hiring is the failure to check
 the backgrounds of job applicants before you hire them. When a pizza deliveryman raped a customer, a jury awarded the victim $6 million of the parent
 company's money. The firm had failed to do a background check which might have disclosed the man's previous sex-offense record. A trucking company
was ordered to compensate a family when several family members were injured in an accident caused by one of its drivers. The amount awarded was
many times what it would have been had the company checked the driver's record before hiring him. Every day people with criminal records, falsified
educational credentials, and other serious liabilities are hired by companies who fail to thoroughly check their backgrounds. The result can be acts
leading to expensive negligent hiring lawsuits.
