How Do I Remove My Case From the Internet?
Having your case details, court records, bankruptcy information, and more online can feel like a huge invasion of privacy.

When you're stuck wondering, "how do I ?", it's time to connect with DoNotPay to tackle the task for you.
DoNotPay works to assist you in numerous ways. Whether you want divorce information, criminal records, or other personal information from leading search websites removed, we will help you achieve your goal. Don't fret any longer!
Why Does Having Case Information Removed Have to be So Difficult?
We hear you! The process of requesting that your case information, personal details, number, photos, and more be removed should be straightforward and easy to accomplish. If only it could be achieved with the click or two of a button. Alas, that isn't the case, because so many people seem to feel it's necessary to have any and all details of everyone's lives offered to them at all times.
DoNotPay is here to help. We'll walk you through getting your details removed on your own, or if you prefer, we'll handle it for you and take the stress off your shoulders.
How Can I Request Information Removal on My Own?
To attempt to handle the removal of your case information and personal details on your own, you can try two things:
- Contact every website where the information resides
- File a petition with the court
Contact Every Website
You will need to start by reaching out to each website that displays your court details. You may need to spend time contacting numerous sites to have your information removed from each one, which can add a lot of stress to your plate. In the end though, many will remove it as asked and will no longer be a worry.
File a Petition
Filing a petition with the court where you have a case is also a worthwhile solution. You can ask to have it expunged or sealed, though this can cost you time and money. Not everyone is eligible to have their records expunged this way. It all depends on:
- The type of case or crime committed
- The length of time that has passed so far
- Whether you were actually charged or simply had a case against you
Many courts do not allow for full expungement when a crime was committed and you were actually charged. However, some will still seal the records, especially if you can prove that allowing them to be publicly visible has caused you harm or distress in some way.
