Pembroke Pines Quick Facts
Pembroke Pines Public Records Portal
The City of Pembroke Pines uses a GovQA portal for public records requests. This online tool lets residents, vendors, and businesses submit a request and track it from start to finish. You can also search for records that have already been released. The portal accepts anonymous requests, so you do not have to give your name if you prefer not to. Once you submit a request, the City Clerk's Office reviews it and gets back to you with the records or an update.
The Pembroke Pines public records request page walks you through the steps to submit or track a request.
Setting up an account on the GovQA portal lets you track your request and talk with the clerk's staff directly through the system.
The first 30 minutes of research and copy time is free. If your request goes past that, the city charges for the actual cost of the person doing the work plus a 30% surcharge. Paper copies cost 15 cents for single-sided and 25 cents for double-sided pages. If the records can be sent by email, there are no document fees. The City Clerk is Gabriel Fernandez, and the office is at 601 City Center Way, 4th Floor, Pembroke Pines, FL 33025. You can reach them at 954-450-1050.
Note: Under Florida law, email addresses are public records, so if you send a request by email the address could be disclosed to others who ask.
Pembroke Pines Police Records
The Pembroke Pines Police Department has a Records Unit that handles incident reports, crash reports, and other police documents. You can request records through the city's GovQA portal or go in person to the police station. The department is at 9500 Pines Boulevard. The phone number is 954-431-2200.
When you make a request, have the case number or date of the incident ready. This makes it much easier for staff to find your records. Crash reports are available for a fee, and some can also be pulled through third-party services. For records tied to open investigations, access is restricted until the case is closed. This is standard under Florida law and applies to all police departments in the state, not just Pembroke Pines.
Fees for police records follow the same Chapter 119 rules as other city records. The first half hour is free, and after that, labor and copy costs kick in. If you are looking for basic info like whether a report was filed on a certain date, the staff can usually tell you over the phone without a formal request.
Find Pembroke Pines Residents by Name
Voter rolls are one of the fastest ways to look up a Pembroke Pines resident. Florida makes voter data public under state law. The file has each voter's name, home address, date of birth, and party. It does not have Social Security numbers or license numbers. You can get voter data from the Florida Division of Elections or from the Broward Supervisor of Elections. If a person is registered to vote in Pembroke Pines, their current address will be in the file.
Property records work well too. The Broward County Property Appraiser lets you search by name, address, or folio number. Results show who owns a property, their mailing address, the assessed value, and exemption status. A Homestead exemption on a property in Pembroke Pines almost always means that is the person's main home. The search is free. You do not need to give your name or explain why you want the data.
The Florida Comprehensive Case Information System covers court records from all 67 counties. Search by name for civil, criminal, family, and probate cases. This tool pulls data from every clerk of court in the state, which makes it useful for checking if a Pembroke Pines resident has court records anywhere in Florida.
Broward Court Records for Pembroke Pines
Pembroke Pines falls under the 17th Judicial Circuit, which is all of Broward County. The Broward County Clerk of Courts handles all court filings for this circuit. You can search online by party name or case number for civil, criminal, family, and probate cases. Many record images are on the site so you can view them from home. Deeds, mortgages, and liens are also in the clerk's system.
If you need a certified copy of a court document from a Pembroke Pines case, the Broward clerk can provide one for a fee. Some documents may be restricted from online view due to privacy rules in Florida law. But basic case info like filing dates, parties, and case types is almost always there for public search.
Pembroke Pines Records and Florida Law
Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes gives everyone the right to inspect and copy public records. This law applies to all city and county offices in Pembroke Pines. You do not need to give your name or state a reason when you ask for records. The Pembroke Pines residents directory draws from records covered by this law, including voter data, property files, court records, and city documents.
Certain info about Pembroke Pines residents stays private. Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, and Florida ID numbers are always kept out of public files. Home addresses of law enforcement officers are exempt too. Agencies can charge up to 15 cents per page for copies. If a request takes more than 30 minutes of staff time, the agency can charge for the labor involved. In Pembroke Pines, those labor costs come with a 30% surcharge. Fees must be paid before records go out. The city clerk's office handles disputes and questions about fees.
Note: The GovQA portal lets you communicate directly with city staff about your request, which can help resolve any issues faster than phone calls.
Pembroke Pines License Search

Results show the person's name, license status, address of record, and any past issues. The database covers more than one million licensed professionals across fields like real estate, construction, cosmetology, and dozens of other trades. The search is free.
Always check that the status says Active before you hire a contractor or other service provider in Pembroke Pines. If the status shows something else, that could mean the license has been revoked, suspended, or simply expired.
Safety Records in Pembroke Pines
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement keeps a public database of registered sexual offenders and predators.
