The ReferenceLegal database contains, in module format, detailed information on more than 14 million US businesses, 210 million US residents, 855,000 US health care providers, 2 million UK businesses,1.5 million Canadian businesses, and 12 million Canadian households. Other modules include Corp Tech and International Businesses. Legal professionals may customize the product by purchasing one or more modules.
Information is compiled from the following public sources: Secretary of State filings; annual reports, 10-Ks and other SEC information; Utility feeds from businesses turning on their gas, power, phone, etc. Continuing Medical Education (CME) directories; federal, state, provincial and municipal government data; Chamber of Commerce information; leading business magazines, trade publications, newsletters, major newspapers, industry and specialty directories; and postal service information, including both US and Canadian National Change of Address updates.
250 employees make telephone calls to verify the information on each business and health care provider in the database. 17 million phone calls are made each year, and businesses with 100 or more employees are phone-verified at least twice a year.
ReferenceLegal's residential information is compiled from more than 3,900 White Page telephone directories. Each listing appears in the database exactly as it appears in the phone book. Information is available eight to 12 weeks after it appears in the phone book, and the file is processed through US and Canadian National Change of Address records on a monthly basis.
Each US residential listing also contains information from the most recent US census, including median household income, median home value, latitude/longitude and percentage of owner-occupied housing.
