Looking to find some deeper information on branches of Judaism such as Hasidic, Orthodox, Conservative and Reform. As detailed as possible would be great.

The links Mary gave are good, especially http://www.jewfaq.org. So is this one, http://www.virtualjewishlibrary.org.

Judaism has branches, not sects. The differences are not at all like in Christianity. They aren't about different core theology. They are about levels of observance vs. secularism for the most part.

Here. Read Wayne Dosick's extremely brief discussion of modern Jewish movements:

Click on "Contents" and scroll down to "Modern Denominations" on page 61. Read. Learn. Understand.
