Provided is an incarceration alert system that can provide expedited assistance to an individual, such as an inmate. A user registers with the incarceration alert system and, as part of the registration, provides contacts to be monitored. The incarceration alert system then monitors various inmate processing systems for incarceration records related to the contact. When the incarceration alert system identifies a match between an incarceration record and a contact, the incarceration alert system identifies the contact as an inmate and notifies the user of the incarceration of the contact. In certain examples, the individual may register directly with the incarceration alert system to be monitored and/or receive legal services. In such examples, the incarceration alert system can provide the individual with a selectable list of attorneys that can quickly provide legal assistance. After receiving the individual's attorney selection, the incarceration alert system notifies the selected attorney of the selection.
