New York Criminal Data Access

Our proprietary platform provides direct access to comprehensive New York criminal record data, enabling background screening companies to enhance their verification capabilities.

Are you paying too much for New York state criminal record searches? Pointer File NY™ provides a competitively-priced yet comprehensive alternative that can maximize your margins.

Powered by our near three-decade partnership with the New York law enforcement, Pointer File NY™ (PF NY) allows access to New York state conviction data comparable to the costly New York Office of Court Administration - at a fraction of the price. Pointer File New York™ positively identifies the subject, and allows you to quickly assess when additional criminal record research is needed in New York State.

The data being searched usually contains two, if not all four, main identifiers; name, date of birth, social security number, and address. Therefore, you know the data matches the subject before you incur any additional costs required to research the data at the primary source (court record) for the applicable conviction details. This eliminates costs incurred for name only match research.
