If you have ever tried to look for information on arrest warrants from the City of Danville, Virginia, you will know that the task entails quite a bit of work. For starters, you will pick one of the three government agencies that keep information on locally issued active warrants and arrest records of the area. You will then have to physically show up at the chosen department’s office to get the warrant search done.

A decidedly simpler approach is to look online. Unfortunately, these agencies do not offer details on the City of Danville outstanding warrants over the internet. So, you better be ready for the grind or find an option that works without you having to step outside your home. The good news here is that several private entities can get the job done for you painlessly.

For instance, to find information on countrywide arrest records and not just active warrants from the City of Danville, you will only have to fill the form you see on this page. The information requested about the subject is fairly straightforward, and you would need as much even if you were to approach the local sheriff’s office.

A small fee will be charged for the services offered; however, the advantage here is that this is a one-time charge. This means that you could do as many searches as you want for a specific period of time. Needless to say, this can be both convenient and affordable when compared to government agencies that charge on a per search basis. Yet, if you do need an official warrant search report, you can go to:

  • The sheriff: PO Box 3405, Danville, Virginia 24543
  • The magistrate: 401 Patton St, Danville, VA 24541
  • The clerk of court: 212 Lynn Street, Danville, Virginia 24543
