I am excited to announce that the Winter Park branch location of my office will be moving to a new, larger, permanent home in the coming months. The new location will have some expanded services to help better serve our customers.
This new building is not just a branch of my office, but it will also be a courthouse. It is three times the size of the current branch location and will include two courtrooms.

here will also be double the amount of clerk service stations, a larger waiting area, and a larger wedding ceremony room. Also, all the usual services my office provides such as passports, marriage licenses, ceremonies, and payments will be available.
I am pleased to share that Self-Help services, which I first introduced at the Downtown Orange County Courthouse in 2015, will be expanded to this location. Here customers can get pro se legal assistance for family law, small claims, and residential evictions. There is also a space for attorney consultations.
We are partnering with the 9th Judicial Circuit and Orange County Government to finalize details of the grand opening for this courthouse which is located just off University Boulevard near Goldenrod Road. As construction gets closer to completion, we will share more information about the grand opening, scheduled to take place in early 2025.

Customer service is at the core of what we do for the citizens of Orange County. If you have recently conducted business with the Clerk’s Office, I’d like to hear from you.
Please take a moment to let us know what we did well as well as where we still have opportunities to improve.
