RichmondRecords.us is an independent informational website dedicated to helping residents, researchers, legal professionals, journalists, and curious citizens navigate the world of public records. We are passionate about transparency, civic awareness, and empowering individuals with the knowledge they need to access information that is rightfully available to them under federal and state law.
Our team consists of researchers, legal information specialists, and civic advocates who understand that accessing public records can often feel overwhelming, confusing, and time-consuming.

Our Mission
Our mission is simple: to make public records accessible to everyone.
We believe that an informed public is the foundation of a healthy democracy. Public records exist to ensure government accountability, protect individual rights, and promote transparency at every level of civic life. Unfortunately, many people do not know what records are available, where to find them, or how to request them.
RichmondRecords.us bridges that gap. We are committed to providing free, reliable, and easy-to-understand information so that every person — regardless of their background or experience — can exercise their right to access public information.
Why Richmond?
Richmond, Virginia has a rich history and a dynamic civic landscape. From the City of Richmond to the surrounding counties of Henrico, Chesterfield, Hanover, and beyond, the greater Richmond metropolitan area encompasses a wide network of government agencies, courts, and record-keeping offices.
We focus on this region because we know it well, and we recognize that local knowledge matters. Understanding which office holds which records, what the local procedures are, and how state law applies in practice can make all the difference when you are searching for important information.
While our primary focus is the Richmond, Virginia area, much of the information and guidance we provide is applicable statewide and, in many cases, nationally.
