How to Check for Broward County Police Warrants
Right now, there are over 5 million open warrants for people living in the US. Most of those people have no idea there is a warrant for a petty crime or misdemeanor. A person can go years with unpaid parking tickets or a missed license renewal warrant out for them, and only realize when they are arrested at a routine traffic stop. Do you or someone you love have a warrant out in Broward County, FL? It's hard to say without a to find out.
Many people have a warrant out for some little, resolvable issue they've simply never been informed of. Don't let a standing warrant ruin your next interaction with the authorities or court system. DoNotPay makes it easy to look up warrant records in Broward County and across the country.
Reasons to Do a Warrant Search in Broward County
As you may have guessed, having a standing warrant for your arrest may not catch up with you for years. You might, possibly, live your entire life without finding out. But if at any point, you interact with the police or legal system, that warrant will become active and you will be arrested. Or this can happen to someone you love who may have to bear witness in court or deal with a simple speeding ticket.
A person can, in fact, be arrested for a standing warrant while coming in to pay the parking tickets and license renewals that they do know about. If you have any expectation of needing or interacting with the legal system in the near future, looking up (and dealing with) warrants ahead of time is extremely useful. Actually getting an accurate and affordable , however, can be extremely frustrating.
How to Do a Broward County Warrant Search on Your Own
There are three ways to do a Broward County warrant search on your own.
-
The Broward County Clerk's Case Search Page
Many states and counties do not have online records search open to the public, but Broward County does. The county clerk has posted a Case-Search tool that you can use to search for some information about you and check if there are any standing warrants and court records.
However, the "Search Tips" section for this page makes it clear that results may vary. Only the top 200 search results will be presented. So if you have a common name like "John Smith" or "Sarah Brown" then your records - though existent - may not appear on the county clerk search page. There are also other tips that suggest the search features are somewhat limited.
In the world of county clerks, this one at least tried to offer an online tool.

Paid Online Warrant Check Services
Your second option is a third-party warrant check service. These can charge up to $50 per search, and there's no guarantee the search will be accurate since you pay upfront. If your name as you give it doesn't exactly match the name on the warrant record (which may be inaccurate) your warrant will not appear even on a paid search.
-
Calling or Visiting Your Local Police Dept or Courthouse
Your last option is to call or visit your police station or courthouse. You can check in with local law enforcement, but be careful. If there is a warrant out on you, you will be arrested immediately even if you are checking for a loved one and not for yourself. They are required to provide the records, but if the police interact with you and one of these 5 million warrants is in your name, you will be arrested for checking.
