Questions about official Grant County criminal records must go to the office that maintains the file. The contacts below route court documents, sheriff reports, custody information, repository reviews, and expungement papers to the appropriate West Virginia government custodian.

This Is Not a Government Office. Grant County Criminal History is privately operated. We cannot retrieve an official record, perform a background check, correct or remove a file, or receive an expungement petition. Those services belong to the government offices listed below.

Need an Official Record?

Use the Grant County or West Virginia office tied to the record:

  • Felony case files and expungement petitions: Grant County Circuit Clerk, 5 Highland Avenue, Petersburg, WV 26847, 304-257-4545
  • Misdemeanors and early felony cases: Grant County Magistrate Clerk, 4 North Main Street, Petersburg, WV 26847, 304-257-4637
  • Sheriff incident and arrest reports: Grant County Sheriff, 5 Highland Avenue, Petersburg, WV 26847, 304-257-1818
  • Current regional jail custody: Potomac Highlands Regional Jail and Correctional Facility, 355 Dolan Drive, Augusta, WV 26704, 304-496-1275
  • Fingerprint-based personal review: West Virginia State Police Criminal Identification Bureau, 304-746-2418, using WVSP-136A and the official fingerprint process
  • Police reports: ask the agency whose officer created the report, since Grant Sheriff, Petersburg Police, Bayard Police, and WVSP keep separate files

For a sheriff-created record, call the Grant County Sheriff at 304-257-1818 before visiting 5 Highland Avenue. No separate records counter hours, request form, fee schedule, or guaranteed email intake method was published. For court records, use the clerk address above and call ahead because official counter hours and copy charges were not confirmed.
