  • Where and how can I get the most complete background check in Alaska?
    Alaska's public records statutes are very similar to the ones of other states. Unfortunately so are the challenges faced by residents of other states. Certain records, due to their popularity and high volume of request are simple and easy to locate, however, other records can be difficult to find and not as apparent as the more frequently requested. For a more complete background history of an individual, criminal records may not suffice. Assets such as property or real estate data are sought for legal and personal reasons. A link accessing the recorder's offices throughout the state of Alaska can direct users to online property data as well as other recorded documents. The property search is free and online for public use. There are important records that are free while left out from an average background searches. Many detention centers, for example, have inmate lists of offenders that were released many years ago. The DOC's searches are freely open to the public. First, focus on your own search by seeking records which are the most important to you. If you are looking for assets, business ownerships and real property, you can find it on your own by requesting copies of or looking up deeds, conducting a search of the secretary of state's database which is free and more. If the aim of your search is to look for lawsuits, you can look up court records online, including bankruptcy records. That is the purpose behind public record directories where a list of these types of databases are linked to.

  • Where can I find in Alaska, who has warrants for their arrest?
    The Alaska state troopers have a site which publishes a public search of persons with a warrant for arrest. From the trooper's home page, look for the "AST warrants" link and enter the webpage, at the bottom of that page, you will see links to pdf and csv files. That will take you to the AST active warrants list. There are 535 pages of names and information about their gender, age, bail amount, description of offense, warrant type and court order. They are not full arrest records/reports, an official arrest or incident report is detailed and obtained from the arresting agency. Many other states make it easy by having a webpage and instructions on how to obtain an official arrest report. In many of the Alaskan departments, I was not able to find it, but you will be able to get the contact information for individual departments.

  • Where can I find in Alaska, how to expunge my criminal record?
    There are a lot of "what if's" attached to the response. From seeing the information about it online, it matters if it is a felony or misdemeanor, federal or state crime, type of crime, even the specifics of the case can affect a successful expungement.
