Arizona Criminal Record Research

The Public Record Source is the premier source of public record research for the state of Arizona.

Why The Public Record Source?

In addition to our unrivaled experience, we utilize technology to provide a top quality product that our competitors cannot match.  While there are a handful of industry-typical order management systems that nearly all public record research firms use, these systems often go years between updates and are dependent on third-party software engineers.  The Public Record Source, however, utilizes a Direct-to-Researcher system that has been developed entirely in-house.  This system is routinely updated, and is monitored by our own engineers.

As a result, our turnaround time is substantially lower than that of our competitors, and our search fee is the industry-best.

Our Fees

The order management systems utilized by our competitors charge a per-search fee, which ultimately gets passed on to the client.  Because we our system has been developed in-house, there are no usage fees – which means lower search fees for our clients!

Search fees are dependent on county, volume and expected hit-ratio, so please contact us for a current price list.  We also work with pre-screened searches and record retrieval.

All Research is Performed On-Site

We furnish a high quality, data secure service at an increasingly competitive rate—without skimping on professional provider standards such as adequate Errors, Omissions and Liability Insurance; effective data security measures; formal training and apprenticing; a working knowledge of the applicable laws, standards and guidelines of our sector; required licensure; and the myriad other unseen smaller actions that differentiate the more professional provider.

Pre-Screened Searches

The average hit-ratio for most of our clients is between 8-12%.  We do, however, work with CRAs with an above-average hit ratio who perform initial searches on their end.  Additionally, we also provide purely record-retrieval services for an additional fee.

Data Security

All PII (Personal Identification Information) is maintained behind high-level 256 bit SSL encryption.  All of our researchers who have access to PII are subject to thorough background checks and routine auditing.

Turnaround & Fees

All Maricopa & Pima county searches are returned within 24 hours.  Most other counties are completed in 24-48 hours.

Our search fee is dependent upon the county, hit-ratio, and expected volume.  Discounts for higher volume clients are available.  Contact us today to discuss our current price list.
