Unearthing public records such as death, inheritance, asset ownership, and marriage is pretty easy. However, conducting an arrest warrant search in Anchorage Borough, AK, presents a different challenge. Many people yearn to uncover details about active warrants and arrest records, only to find themselves frowning because they must either slog through the painfully slow mail process or head to a state agency in person.

There are two sides to this coin; one is that your efforts will be suitably rewarded if you go to a government department like local law enforcement or judiciary, and two, that you do have an alternative. Let us start with the first; understandably, going to a state agency in person can be cumbersome and time-consuming, according to many.

However, you should know that once at the concerned state office, it will only take a few minutes to fill out the request form to get your inquiry on Anchorage Borough’s outstanding warrants and arrests underway. The response will quickly follow the completion of the process, and at the maximum, it can take a day to get the results of the investigation.

When you approach a justice establishment to find details on Anchorage arrest warrants, you also get additional data, such as data on bench warrants, subpoenas, criminal summons, and other legal instruments issued against the subject, along with civil court dockets. For this inquiry, you will need to go to the office of the Borough Clerk or the magistrate. Another option is to fill out the application above and connect with a third-party agency. For state departments, make your way down to:

  • The sheriff: 4501 S Bragaw St, Anchorage, Alaska 99507
  • The magistrate: 632 W 6th Ave, Anchorage, AK 99501
  • The clerk of court: 550 West 7th Avenue, Suite 1200, Anchorage, Alaska 99501-3564
