Ohio Arrests works to keep its county guides, office contacts, and process explanations as accurate as possible — but public-records systems change constantly. Fees get updated, county portals move, phone numbers get reassigned. If you’ve spotted something that looks wrong, outdated, or just confusing, please let us know. A quick report from you helps every other person who lands on that page next.
What to report
Almost any factual mismatch is worth flagging. Common examples include:
- A link to a county or state records portal that is broken or redirects to the wrong place
- A phone number, mailing address, or office hours that no longer match what the agency actually shows
- A fee or identification requirement that has changed since we last checked
- Information on our site that conflicts with what an official county or court page says
- A typo or an explanation that is hard to follow
To help us track down the issue quickly, include three things: the web address of the page you were on, a short description of what looks wrong, and — if you have it — the correct information along with where you saw it (for example, the official county clerk or court website). You don’t need to share your name or any personal details.
What we can fix — and what we can’t
We can fix anything that is wrong in our own guidance. A bad link, an outdated fee, a disconnected phone number, a confusing step-by-step explanation — all of that is fair game, and the form above is exactly the right place to report it.
What we cannot do is change, remove, seal, or hide an official record. Ohio Arrests is an informational guide. We do not hold or control any arrest, court, or jail records. Those records belong to the agencies and courts that created them — and only those agencies and courts have the authority to alter or seal them.
If your goal is to have an Ohio record sealed or destroyed, that happens through the courts, not through us. The legal process in Ohio is called Expungement (Destruction of Records), and our Ohio arrest records guide explains how that process works and where to begin. If we’ve gotten a detail about that process wrong — a waiting period, an eligibility rule, a court name — please do report it and we’ll correct our description.
How we handle your report
Every report submitted through this form comes directly to the OH Arrests Editorial Team. We do our best to review each one. When we can confirm an issue against the official primary source — the county portal, the court’s own page, or a state agency — we apply the correction. Most confirmed changes go live within 48 hours. Some take longer, particularly when we need to call or email an agency to verify a detail before updating it.
We genuinely appreciate every report we receive. Accurate public-records information is only possible when readers take a moment to flag what needs a second look. Thank you for helping keep Ohio Arrests useful and honest.
