Get court records removed from search and legal data sites

We pursue removal, redaction and de-indexing of court records that harm a person or business.

  • Dockets on Justia, UniCourt and Trellis
  • Sealed or expunged cases still listed online
  • Dismissed or settled cases appearing in name searches
  • Records with private or sensitive details
  • Duplicate listings across several sites
  • Search results that surface any of the above

Record sites respond to the right documents, so we build the order or request each one accepts and send it everywhere the case is listed. We assess your case free.

How it works

How Court Record Removal Works

  1. 01

    Free Case Assessment

    We review the case status, the sites that list it and the grounds available, then choose the strongest route.

  2. 02

    Order and Evidence Preparation

    We gather the court order or work with counsel on sealing or expungement, and prepare the identity and case documents each site requires.

  3. 03

    Redaction, Removal and Orders to Sites

    We file in each site’s required format and send the order to every aggregator that lists the case.

  4. 04

    De-Indexing and Follow-Up

    We submit search-engine requests, follow up until resolved and monitor for relisted records.

Courts set a high bar for sealing, so we assess the grounds with counsel before you commit to any route.

What we get removed, and the hard cases we take on

What we get removed

  • Sealed or expunged cases with the order in hand
  • Records involving minors, identity theft or danger to safety
  • Personal details such as signatures and account numbers
  • Duplicate listings across aggregators
  • Record pages de-indexed from Google and Bing

Hard cases we take on

  • Dismissed cases: we work with counsel toward sealing or expungement
  • Unsealed records: we pursue redaction, privacy requests and de-indexing
  • Temporary redactions: we build the order that makes them permanent
  • Records that reappear: we monitor and resubmit with the order
  • Several cases across several sites: we file each with the supporting documents

Why Our Removal Approach Works

We build the order and requests each record site and search engine acts on.

  • Sealing and expungement worked with counsel
  • Requests in each site’s exact format
  • Orders sent to every site that lists the case
  • Specialists who handle these cases daily
  • Confidential handling and follow-up until resolved

Court records are public, so record sites generally act on a sealing or expungement order rather than on a request alone. We build that order first, then submit it everywhere the case is listed and file de-indexing requests so the result holds in search.

Typical scenarios

Situations We Handle on Court Record Sites

01

Sealed Case Still Listed Online

A court record that was sealed or expunged still appears on a legal data site and in search.

→ We supply the court order with a removal request and file de-indexing requests with the search engines.

Our goal: Record removed or redacted and de-indexed in line with the order

02

Private Details in a Docket

A listing shows a signature, account number or other sensitive detail.

→ We submit a privacy and redaction request in the site’s format and a personal-information request to Google.

Our goal: Sensitive details redacted and the page removed from search results

FAQ

Court record removal questions

Can you get my court record removed?

Where the record is sealed or expunged, Justia, UniCourt and Trellis remove or redact it when you supply the court order. For other cases we pursue redaction, de-indexing and, through counsel, sealing or expungement. We assess your case free and choose the strongest route.

Can court records be removed from Justia, UniCourt or Trellis?

Yes, through the route each site accepts: a sealing or expungement order, or a redaction or privacy request in the situations they consider, such as minors, identity theft or danger to safety. We prepare the request and supporting documents for each site that lists the case.

Does a dismissed or settled case get removed automatically?

No, a dismissal does not remove the listing by itself. Record sites generally act on a sealing or expungement order, so we work with counsel on the order, then submit it to every site that lists the case, with de-indexing requests to the search engines.

What is the difference between a redaction and a removal?

A redaction hides names or details and may be temporary, while removal takes the record down. We use redaction and privacy requests where they are available and pursue the order that makes removal stick.

Does de-indexing remove the record?

De-indexing removes the page from Google and Bing results while the record may stay on the site. It is the layer that locks in the result, since most people find a record by searching a name.

Do you guarantee removal?

Our fee is tied to results: no removal, no fee. Every decision is the publisher’s, the platform’s or the court’s, so we assess your case first and confirm the strongest route and the terms in writing before we start.

What mistakes weaken a court record removal?

Avoid these mistakes and your request is far stronger: asking a record site to remove an unsealed case without a court order; sending a request in the wrong format or from the wrong email; contacting each site separately without a plan; and assuming a temporary redaction is permanent. Send us the case details and we will build the request in order.
