Questions about official Alameda County criminal records belong with the office that created or maintains the file. This private resource cannot retrieve, correct, or certify a record. The contacts below route court documents, police reports, custody information, and personal state record reviews to their official custodians.

This Is Not a Government Office. We run a private reference site. We cannot pull criminal records, run official background checks, remove or correct a record, or accept expungement filings for anyone. For any of those, you need to reach the right government office directly.

Use the office tied to the kind of Alameda County record you need:

  • Court case files: see criminal court case records or call the criminal clerk where the case was heard
  • Personal state record review: contact the California Department of Justice
  • Booking and jail records: use the Alameda County Sheriff's Office Inmate Locator or Santa Rita Jail
  • Police reports and incident records: contact the agency that wrote the report
  • Dismissal and sealing: begin with the court that handled the case or Alameda County Clean Slate
