County Criminal History

A county criminal history search is essential. It's the baseline of most background checks and provides the most current, complete criminal information from county courthouses.

We insist on this search as it uncovers the following information:

• Charges
• Sentencing information
• County and state
• Case numbers
• Number of years searched
• Disposition and related dates

Most national and some state criminal databases are updated only periodically, which means they may be missing critical records. At KENTECH, we deliver the most up-to-date information with fast results. Our court researchers examine every U.S. county jurisdiction to find more case information, such as misdemeanor and felony cases that may be prohibited from inclusion in some databases.

The standard scope for the county criminal search is seven years, with extended searches available in some jurisdictions. These searches depend on the limited availability of archived records, state laws, and Fair Credit Reporting Act regulations.
