Run county and statewide court portals first. Civil, criminal, family, and lower-court systems are often separate, so this is where most missed records happen.
Statewide party name search across all 23 Colorado judicial districts — district and county courts for criminal, civil, family law, domestic relations, probate, small claims, and traffic. Exception: Denver County Court (municipal) has a separate portal.
One of the strongest free state court search portals in the country. Search by name and get results from every Colorado courthouse at once — criminal filings, restraining orders, divorce cases, evictions, and civil judgments all in one place. No account needed.
Name and map-based search of registered sex offenders in Colorado. Maintained by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. Misdemeanor-only convictions and juvenile adjudications are excluded from public display.
Search by name or browse by map. CBI maintains this registry and updates it regularly. One important gap: misdemeanor-only sex convictions and juvenile adjudications do not appear publicly — a clean result does not mean no offense history.
Searchable database of current Colorado state prison inmates. Search by last name, first name, gender, or DOCNO. Covers the current CDOC population only — not county jails, parolees no longer under supervision, or federal prisoners.
Use this to check whether someone is currently in a Colorado state prison. If you know someone was arrested but they do not appear here, they may be in a county jail — check the county sheriff roster instead.
Single unified search across Colorado Division of Professions and Occupations. Covers healthcare (medical, dental, nursing, mental health, OT, counseling, pharmacy, vet, optometry, audiology, acupuncture, chiropractic), real estate, mortgage loan originators, plumbers, electricians, accountants, engineers, architects, and more. Results include disciplinary actions and public action documents. Single portal for nearly all state-licensed professions — no per-board hunt.
CO is one of the cleanest states for license verification because DORA runs a single statewide search across nearly every profession. Disciplinary actions surface here, which is the highest-signal piece — a license in good standing is reassuring; a suspension or restriction is loud. Use this whenever someone tells you what they do for work.
Free search of all Colorado-registered business entities — LLCs, corporations, nonprofits, partnerships, trade names. Search by entity name, agent name, or entity number. Filed documents and certificates of good standing are free to download.
Look up any business registered in Colorado — who owns it, who the registered agent is, when it was formed, and whether it is in good standing. Useful for vetting someone who claims to own a business or checking professional background.
Federal District, Appeals, and Bankruptcy courts. Over 1 billion documents filed. $0.10/page (capped at $3.00/document); free if quarterly charges under $30. Account required for search. Confirmed live 2026-05-03.
PACER catches federal cases the state DOC and state courts will not. Account required, small per-search fees. Worth using for white-collar, federal drug, immigration, and bankruptcy.
All federal prison inmates, current and historical from 1982. Search by name (with race/sex/age filters) or inmate number. Note: search backend showed intermittent error during 2026-05-03 verification — likely temporary. If main tool is down, try https://www.bop.gov/mobile/find_inmate/byname.jsp as fallback.
All 50 states aggregated, plus DC, US territories, and tribal nations. Search by name or location. DOJ-operated. Named after Dru Sjodin. Also links to abuse reporting resources. Confirmed live 2026-05-03.
