On August 18, 2026, Checkr, an AI-powered verification platform for high-stakes decisions, announced the acquisition of Truv, a consumer-permissioned income, employment, and asset verification company. Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati advised Checkr on the transaction.

Truv connects directly to payroll providers and financial institutions on a consumer-permissioned basis, verifying income, employment, and assets in real time across a network that reaches 96 percent of the U.S. workforce. Checkr's acquisition of Truv expands its existing mortgage business and marks its entry into government verification through benefits eligibility checks, building on Checkr's recent additions of mortgage, tenant, and personal verification solutions.

The Wilson Sonsini team that advised Checkr on the transaction was led by Rezwan Pavri, Rich Mullen, and Brian Chan. The team also includes:
