FamilyCourtHelp is an independent educational platform. It is not a court, law firm, government agency, or government partner. We organize and link to publicly available resources published by courts and government agencies. Official requirements may change. Always confirm current requirements with the applicable court or clerk.

Florida's 67 counties are grouped into 20 judicial circuits, and your family case is handled by the circuit court serving your county, with the county clerk of court managing filings and records.

The statewide locator below is the official directory. The county table lists each clerk of court website, where you will find local forms, self-help hours, docket searches, and contact details.

Frequently asked questions

Which circuit is my county in?

Every Florida county belongs to one of 20 judicial circuits. The county table on this page shows each county's clerk website, and the official locator lists the circuit assignments.

Is the clerk the same as the court?

No. The clerk of court is the office that accepts filings, keeps records, and collects fees. Judges and hearings belong to the circuit court itself. For filing questions, the clerk's office is the right first call.
