Jefferson County Land Records Office
The goal of the Jefferson County Probate Court Land Records office (locally referred to as the Record Room) is to serve the citizens of Jefferson County by providing excellent customer service. To accomplish this goal, we use the latest technology available and take time with each and every client in order to meet their needs.
The Probate Court (Land Records office) is a constitutional office established by the Alabama state legislature as the custodian of legal documents pertaining to real property. These documents include Warranty Deeds, Mortgages, Releases, Powers of Attorney, Liens, Plats, Amendments and other miscellaneous documents designated by state law to be recorded by the Probate Court Recording department.
As you can see, the responsibility that the legislature has given the Probate Court is very important. Nearly every citizen will invest in real property at some point in their lives. Most of the time, it will be the largest investment these citizens ever make. Therefore, the integrity of these records is extremely important.
