Questions about official Tazewell County criminal records must go to the office that keeps them. This private reference site cannot retrieve, change, or certify a record. The contacts below route court files to the clerks at the county seat in Tazewell, agency reports to the sheriff or police department, and statewide criminal histories to Virginia State Police.

This Is Not a Government Office. This privately operated resource cannot obtain official records, conduct state checks, correct or seal a file, or receive an expungement petition. Contact the record custodian directly.
