Time-Saving Conveniences Offset Impact of Budget Cuts

As your Clerk & Comptroller, I am committed to providing you with the highest quality of service and that’s why I’m taking steps to minimize the impact of recent legislative budget and staff cuts on our customers. For example, we’ve determined the best, non-peak hours to visit our offices for the fastest services. Your time is valuable, so please use our “Ideal Times to Visit” chart to plan your business with the Clerk’s office. We are closely monitoring wait times and will revise the chart, as needed, on our Web site, www.mypalmbeachclerk.com.

We’ve also implemented a system at the South County Courthouse, our busiest branch location, which allows us to monitor current wait times and report them to you. Customers using the Clerk’s office in Delray Beach may call (561) 355-2996 to find out up-to-the-minute wait times for criminal and civil services.

Don’t forget, you can also avoid a trip to the Clerk’s office by going online. Many services including traffic ticket payments, court and official record searches, Self Service online court forms, Value Adjustment Board petitions and more are right at your fingertips at www.mypalmbeachclerk.com. In fact, to save you time, we’ve recently made all our online information and services easier to find with an improved customer-friendly Web site. It’s easier than ever to find what you need with helpful drop-down menus that include quick links to our most popular services, keyword searches on each page and more.

Making information and services easier to access online helps everyone! If you haven’t already, please take a look, and tell us what you think. Or, simply send me an email with your thoughts and comments.

Best regards,
Sharon R. Bock, Esq.
Clerk & Comptroller
Palm Beach County
