If you are looking for information on arrest warrants issued by the courts of Lawrence County, Tennessee, be prepared to run to one or more state agencies. Although most government entities provide information on arrest records, they do not offer online searches through their active warrants database.

In fact, while you can file a request for records about outstanding warrants by writing to the agency of your choice, you will have to visit the office in person to get your hands on the data. The only saving grace here is that the judiciary and the sheriff’s office of Lawrence, TN, will be more than willing to offer extensive information on your subject’s criminal background.

So, if you have decided to do a warrant search in Lawrence County, begin at the sheriff’s office. You can expect to find an up to date, most wanted list along with all details about any criminal activity that the subject of your inquiry was involved in.

Alternatively, you can also head to the magistrate’s court. Because this is the office that actually issues all arrest warrants, they will undoubtedly have all data about such detention orders, including information on how the case played out and punishment meted out to the offender in a particular matter.

Finally, the county clerk’s office will provide records on all civil and criminal matters that a person was involved in since they maintain the court dockets. All three agencies work out of 240 West Gaines Street, Lawrenceburg, Tennessee 38464. So, you can cover them all in one visit.
