Clerk of Courts

-Info about our office-

The Clerk of Court handles Superior and State civil and criminal records, Juvenile court, adoptions, real estate records, notaries, trade names and military discharges.

Our real estate records date back to when the County was first established in 1796, and digital images are available on public terminals dating back to January 1988. These records are available to the public, and employees will be glad to assist anyone not familiar with our programs.

Since 1999 we have been connected statewide with the Georgia Superior Court Clerk Cooperative Authority - with a public terminal in our office allowing an individual to check all counties for real estate records from one location.

We are currently imaging our older real estate, civil and criminal records so that copies will be more readily available to the public.

We accept Cash, Money Order or Cashiers Check.  We are now set up for Debit/Credit cards, but there is a 4% convenience fee.  We also have an ATM machine in our office for the public.

The Clerk of Superior Court is committed to providing quality customer service. However, the clerk’s office cannot provide legal advice. If you have questions about what to file or your legal rights, please seek the advice from an attorney licensed to practice law in Georgia.
