Understanding the On-Site Court Records Retrieval Process

Our On-Site Court Records searches are performed by people who travel to county and municipal courthouses to search for records that match the name and (usually) the SSN and/or DOB that have been supplied to them. As a general rule, within two to four business days, the researcher is able to return records to us or notify us that no records were found.
However, in an increasing number of counties across the country, researchers are being required to submit a written request for records to court clerks, who then pull the files for the researcher and present them with the information. If the search subject has an uncommon name, or if no records are found matching the subject's name, the turn-around is still fairly rapid. But it is important to remember that:

Turn-around times can be dramatically increased when a number of records match a subject name.
In many counties, some identifying information is contained in the county's criminal record index. This allows the researcher to limit their request to records that belong to the subject, which speeds up the process.

Quoting turn-around times is complicated by a number of other factors, as well, including:
*Courts changing policies or procedures without notice
*Errors in the submitted information, or in a record itself, which result in the necessity of rechecking the                 files.

For these reasons, we cannot guarantee specific turn-around times and cannot cancel searches or refund costs once a search request has been submitted to a court.

Please Note: The fees charged by individual courts for record retrieval vary and are subject to change without notice at the discretion of those courts. All court fees incurred by us will be charged in addition to the research fee quoted above.
