Before You Go
Have as much identifying information as possible before searching for a record.
Depending on what you’re looking for, that may include:
- Full legal name
- Court case number
- Property address or parcel number
- Approximate incident date
- Booking information
- Document or deed information
Also make sure you’re searching the correct agency. A Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office report is different from a report created by Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville or Westfield police.
Court records are generally handled through the Hamilton County Clerk and Indiana court system, while deeds and other recorded real-estate documents are maintained by the Hamilton County Recorder.
Local Tips
- Start with Indiana MyCase for court records. Many Hamilton County civil, criminal and traffic cases can be searched without contacting the courthouse.
- Use Hamilton County’s inmate search for someone currently in jail. If you’re researching an older criminal case, Court Records may be more useful.
- Know which police department responded. Reports handled by a city police department may need to be requested directly from that agency.
- Use the property search before calling a county office. Ownership, assessments and other basic property information are available online.
- Use GIS when an address isn’t enough. Parcel maps can help identify property boundaries and parcel information.
- For the actual deed or recorded document, use Recorder resources. Property-report information isn’t the same thing as a recorded deed.
- Election information can change. Check your polling location before each election rather than assuming you vote at the same location as before.
- Some public records may have access restrictions. Not every police, juvenile, confidential or court record is available to the general public.
