Remove records that follow you.
Dismissed charges and old court cases shouldn't define you forever. We suppress and remove court filings and legal records from search results, and clean up your digital past.
Quick overview
- We suppress and remove court filings and legal documents from search. See what we cover.
- Dismissed charges, acquittals, and expunged records get particular priority.
- Citing a privacy law, a sealed or expunged status, or a court order carries far more weight with an aggregator than a plain removal request. More on our approach.
- We are not a legal expungement service — read the distinction before you start.
What we do
Arrest record suppression
Arrest records—especially for dismissed cases, acquittals, and expunged records—removed or suppressed from search.
Court document de-indexing
Court case filings and documents removed from Google's index so they no longer appear in search.
Our approach
How we handle a court record case
Most court record aggregators accept some kind of redaction or opt-out request, and citing a privacy law, a sealed or expunged status, or a court order carries more weight than a plain ask. It's worth trying that route first, especially on a site with a working self-service form.
Not sure yet whether a court record is even showing up under your name? A free reputation scan can confirm it before you reach out to any site directly.
When a site ignores the request, buries it behind a paid removal product, or the record needs to come down from several aggregators at once, that's where a structured process helps — we identify the strongest grounds for each site, submit the request the way that site actually processes it, and follow up until it clears.
Site-specific removal guides
Each court record aggregator has its own removal process. Start with the guide for the specific site your record is on:
What we don't do
We don't offer legal expungement services. Removacy specializes in removing and suppressing public records from search engines and third-party websites — not in sealing or deleting the underlying court record itself. For legal expungement, please consult a licensed attorney.
- Guarantee removal from every aggregator — outcome depends on the specific site's own policy and whether it accepts third-party redaction requests at all.
- Fabricate a court order, misstate a case's status, or misrepresent who's requesting the removal — every submission we send is accurate.
Common questions
Does removing a court record from Google delete the official record?
No. We remove or suppress the record from search results and third-party sites — the official record stays in the court's own database. Deleting or sealing the underlying record itself requires legal expungement through the court, which is a separate process from what we do.
I already got my record expunged — why does it still show on Google?
An expungement order seals the record at the court, but it doesn't automatically reach every site that already indexed or copied it beforehand. The order typically needs to be submitted to each site hosting the record, and the outdated page needs to be removed from Google's index separately. We handle both parts.
Is expungement the same service you offer?
No — expungement is a legal process (petition, case documentation, sometimes a hearing) that only a licensed attorney can file. We remove and suppress records from search and third-party sites; we don't offer legal expungement services (see the note above).
Will the record reappear after it’s removed?
It can. Court record aggregators regularly re-scrape court databases, so a record removed from one site can resurface on another later. That's why we monitor for re-publication rather than treating removal as a one-time task.
Do you cover dismissed charges and acquittals specifically?
Yes — dismissed charges, acquittals, and expunged records get particular priority, since these cases have the strongest grounds for removal from aggregator sites that publish outdated or resolved charges as if they were still active.

We only submit a removal or redaction request when we can point to real grounds for it — a sealed status, a policy violation, or a legitimate privacy claim — not a generic request sent to every site and hoped for the best.
