Report a code violation — anonymously.
$399, filed in our name, not yours. Your neighbor never finds out.
Filed across Florida.
You know the violation is real. But filing in your own name means your address on the record — and a neighbor who knows exactly who complained.
Most people never file. The junk pile stays.
SNITCH exists to fix that one problem:
you report it, we take the credit — and the blame.

Filing a Florida Code Complaint Without Becoming the Story
SNITCH is a Florida-based administrative filing service. We submit qualifying municipal code-enforcement complaints in SNITCH’s name, so you do not have to serve as the named complainant.
A code violation is a code violation regardless of who reports it. Enforcement is about the condition, not the complainant. The problem is that filing exposes you: to a landlord, a neighbor, an HOA, whoever you're reporting, and that exposure is why most people never file.
SNITCH closes that gap. You report a real violation. We identify the right ordinance, confirm the Florida jurisdiction and department, verify the municipality accepts third-party complaints, and file it on your behalf.
Be clear-eyed about anonymity. Florida's SB 60 (2021) ended fully anonymous code complaints in most cases, and a name on a complaint can become public under Chapter 119, the state's public-records law. When SNITCH files as the complainant of record, a records request returns our information rather than yours.
That is not a guarantee your name never surfaces: the posture depends on the municipality, the work product behind a filing may itself be requestable, and we will fully comply with all lawful orders.

How Code Reporting Works in Florida
How SNITCH Improves Florida Code Enforcement
1. Drop a dime.
Address, what the violation is, photos if you have them. Takes about 5 minutes.
2. We verify and file.
Our team confirms which office has jurisdiction, drafts the complaint to that office's standards, and files it in SNITCH's name — never yours.
3. You get updates.
We track the case and tell you what happened. You never talk to the city, and the city never talks to you.
It Works. Here's Proof.
"The junk-strewn lot next door had been an eyesore for three years. SNITCH filed, the inspector came out within two weeks, and the cleanup order was posted the same month. My name appears nowhere."

How to report a code violation.
If you believe a property violates local codes, you can report it for enforcement action.
1. Submit a Report Online
You Document the Violation.
Photograph the issue, note the address, and describe what you're seeing — overgrown lot, abandoned vehicle, unpermitted construction, whatever it is. You don't need to know the specific code. That's our job.
2. Our Team Reviews Your Report
We Review and File.
Submit your report through our platform. Our team reviews it against local municipal codes, confirms it meets the threshold for enforcement action, and files the complaint with the appropriate city or county agency — in our name, not yours. Under Florida SB 60, complainants must identify themselves. We do that so you don't have to.
3. Next Steps & Follow-Up
The System Takes Over.
Once filed, a code enforcement officer is assigned to inspect the property. If a violation is confirmed, the owner receives a notice to comply with a deadline. Fines begin accruing if they don't. SNITCH is the named complainant of record, so your name stays off the filing.
Don't Worry, We Got You.
Starting from $399.
SNITCH files code complaints across Florida
From Pensacola to Key West, SNITCH files code violation complaints with municipal and county enforcement agencies throughout Florida. We're actively filing in Broward, Miami-Dade, Hillsborough, Pinellas, Orange, Duval, Sarasota, Lee, Collier, Volusia, Brevard, Polk, Seminole, and Manatee counties, with coverage expanding weekly.
Can't afford to file?
Backers cover it.
Tenants face the worst code violations — and the worst retaliation risk. The Renter Filing Fund pays for qualifying complaints when a tenant can't, and files under SNITCH's name instead of yours.
We've filed your complaint with the appropriate Florida agency under SNITCH's name. A code enforcement officer is assigned to inspect the property, typically within a few business days depending on the municipality.
If the officer confirms a violation, the owner gets a formal notice with a compliance deadline, usually 7 to 30 days. Miss the deadline and the case goes to a Code Enforcement Board or Special Magistrate, where daily fines begin.
Response times from the municipality vary by case and jurisdiction. To check status, reference your report confirmation number when you contact us at go@joesnitch.com. Premium customers get same-day support.

my name is
Chaz Stevens
And I'd like to introduce myself...
For years, I've forced power to backpedal — using strategy, disruption, and a deep understanding of how bureaucracy crumbles under its own weight. I've turned public-records law into a crowbar, satirical religion into a First Amendment battering ram, and the government's own paperwork into the rope it hangs itself with. From exposing corruption to weaponizing bad laws against the people who wrote them, I don't fight fair. I fight to win.
I've outlasted lawsuits, threats, and officials who assumed I'd eventually go away. I didn't. Every time the machine pushed back, it handed me a new tool. That's the pattern: power overreaches, leaves a seam, and I pull the thread.
SNITCH is the same instinct, aimed at a smaller target — the code violation next door, filed without putting your name in the crosshairs.
Your move.
