Mugshot & Search Result Removal Requests
Our mugshot removal service requests the takedown of booking photos from mugshot sites and Google results where the law or site policy allows it. We also handle other harmful search results, such as pages that expose your personal details. Not every item can be removed, and we tell you which ones are likely before you pay for the work.

- Fixed quote in writing before work starts
- Reply to every request within 24 hours
Key takeaways
- Each result is sorted by its removal route: site policy, state law, Google policy, legal action or not removable.
- Expungement or sealing paperwork is included with requests, since third-party sites do not update on their own.
- We never pay mugshot sites for removal, and scraped photos are rechecked because they can reappear on new sites.
How Mugshot Removal Works
Mugshot sites copy booking photos from police and jail websites and publish them with the arrest details. The photo often ranks for your name long after the case is closed, even if charges were dropped.
Many states now limit or ban charging a fee to remove a booking photo. Google also has a policy that lets people request removal of results from sites that charge to take content down. We use both routes.
We first ask the site to remove the page, citing your state's law where one applies. If your record was expunged or sealed, we include that paperwork. Once a page is gone or changed, we ask Google to update its results with its outdated content tool.
Other Negative Content We Can Ask to Remove
Negative content removal depends on what the content is and where it lives. These are the types with the clearest routes.
Personal Information
Google may remove results that show your home address, phone number or other contact details, especially alongside threats or doxxing.
Explicit Images Shared Without Consent
Google has a dedicated removal process for these images.
Outdated Pages
When a site has already changed or deleted a page, Google's outdated content tool can clear the old version from results.
Copied Content
If someone republished your photos or writing, a copyright takedown request may apply.
Defamatory Content
Platforms often act on a court order that finds content defamatory. We work with your attorney on this route.
When Content Cannot Be Removed
Accurate news articles, court records and most public records usually stay online. No one can remove negative content just because it hurts your reputation. A publisher may agree to update an article with a later outcome, such as a dismissal, but that is their decision.
When negative search results cannot be removed, we work to add accurate pages that deserve to rank for your name. That might include professional profiles, a personal site or published articles. Over time, these can make older items less visible. See our personal reputation management service for that side of the work.
Our Process for Negative Content Removal Services
Step 1: We search your name and list every result that may be harmful. Step 2: We sort each item by its removal route: site policy, state law, Google policy, legal action or not removable.
Step 3: We file requests and keep copies of every submission. Step 4: We follow up, then recheck your results on a schedule. Mugshot pages sometimes reappear on new sites that scrape the same data, so ongoing checks matter.
You get a simple report showing each item, the request we filed and its current status.
Choosing a Mugshot Removal Company
Each item gets a fixed quote in writing, and monitoring plans are quoted up front. Cost depends on how many sites list the item and whether legal documents are needed.
Be careful with any firm that promises removal or that seems tied to the sites publishing the photos. Ask for an itemized list of what they will request and how. We do not pay mugshot sites for removal, and we will not promise outcomes that depend on someone else's decision.

Negative Search Result Removal Questions, Answered
Straight answers to the questions we hear most. Ask us anything else on the free audit call.
Not always. Removal depends on the site, your state's laws and Google's policies. We tell you which listings have a strong case and which may not come down.
No. Expungement or sealing changes the official record, but third-party sites do not update on their own. The court paperwork can make removal requests stronger.
Each site sets its own pace after a valid request, and some never respond. Google updates its results after the page changes, which can add more time.
Google rarely removes accurate news articles. We can help you ask the publisher for an update or removal, and add accurate results that rank for your name.
Sometimes. Mugshot photos can be scraped again by new sites. Our monitoring plans recheck your results and file new requests if that happens.
