How to Search Pennsylvania Court Records (Start Here)
Pennsylvania court records are filed with the Prothonotary / Clerk of Courts. The Court of Common Pleas handles trial-level cases. Pennsylvania offers a statewide court search through UJS Portal, which covers most case types across all counties courts.
What this page covers: Pennsylvania state court case records — criminal, civil, family, and probate filings. What it does not cover: Federal court cases (those are on PACER) or sealed/juvenile records.
Where to start: Use UJS Portal for online case search. If you need documents beyond docket information, contact the Prothonotary / Clerk of Courts in the specific county where the case was filed.
Common mistake: UJS Portal covers state courts only. Federal cases filed in Pennsylvania (bankruptcy, federal criminal, federal civil) require PACER — a separate federal system.
