Mugshot Removal Fees | Ensure Your Mugshot is Removed From Google

So how much do these sites charge people?

If you decide to hire a removal agency to work on your behalf there are several things you should know before receiving a proposal with a price point way out of your price range.

First of all, booking photos, removals ARE NOT CHEAP. We cannot stress this enough. As unfortunate as the situation is, these web pages (i.e. mugshots.com, rapsheets.org or arrests.org) are not doing anything legally wrong.

Since these websites are covered under the FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) they can post public information whenever and however they would like. The only exception is that they cannot reach out to you directly and demand payment. If you reach out to them first asking for removal options they are allowed to charge you a fee.

Most website owners refer to this fee as an “administrative surcharge” and the prices can range from $100-$500 depending on the website you are seeking removal from.

Yes, that is right, some website owners charge in upwards of $500 for a single photo to be removed. So we will let you do the math…

Removing ten photos can cost you at most, $5,000!

After a decade of removing from these websites and working through our legal entities, we can reduce most of these fees and are able to offer solutions well below the competition.
