Should I choose county or statewide criminal searches?
County criminal record searches provide the most up-to-date information available and counties may take some time before reporting to the state. Therefore, American DataBank suggests a County criminal search whenever you are sure of which County an individual has lived in or if you think that there has been recent litigation.

The Statewide search is an excellent resource for researching an individual who might have lived in several Counties or if you are unsure of which County the person lived in. Not all states are available statewide, please see above for availability.

If you are looking for criminal records within 6 to 12 months, it may be best to order a county criminal search because it provides the latest information.

If you do not know the county where the individual may have been convicted or if the individual has moved around within the state it may be best to order a statewide criminal search which has a much wider geographic focus.

Does the individual I am searching on have a way to find out?
No. Because the criminal records being searched are a matter of public record, the person does not have to know about the search. However a signed consent form is required if the criminal record is being used for employment screening purposes and is required for some statewide criminal searches.
Click here for the disclosure release form.

Turnaround Time: 90% of our criminal record searches are returned to our clients within 24 hours. The remaining 10% can vary up to 72 hours depending on the state searched, the jurisdiction searched and the records themselves. If you need to get results as quickly as possible try our instant criminal search.
