Remove Content From Mugshot & Arrest Record Sites
Did your case resolve in your favor, or has your record been sealed or expunged — yet third-party sites keep publishing an old arrest record anyway?
Some sites scrape public arrest records and keep them live for years; some even charge a fee to "remove" the listing, which is illegal in a number of jurisdictions (including several U.S. states). WebTrep prepares a legal removal request grounded in the right basis — acquittal, dismissal, record expungement/sealing, or the subject being a minor at the time.
We never operate on a "pay to remove" basis; instead we build a formal request supported by the relevant court order or documentation showing the record should no longer be public. For content that can't be removed at the source, we pursue search-engine delisting.
Why WebTrep?
Legal Basis Assessment
We build the removal case around your acquittal, dismissal, or expungement order.
Formal Request to the Site Owner
We send a formal removal request to the site, backed by the required documentation.
Identifying Unlawful Pay-to-Remove Schemes
If the site demands payment for removal, we assess the legal consequences of that practice.
Search Engine Delisting
For records that can't be removed at the source, we file requests to reduce their visibility in search results.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a record removed while the case is still ongoing?
Removing accurate records tied to an active legal proceeding usually isn't possible; in that case we recommend alternative strategies to reduce visibility.
The site is asking me to pay for removal — should I?
No — we first assess whether that request is even lawful; pay-to-remove schemes are illegal in many jurisdictions.
How long does it take?
With documentation ready, anywhere from a few days to a few weeks.
