WEST PALM BEACH, FLA. – A record-breaking number of people are saving time and recording their deeds, mortgages and other official records online with the Clerk & Comptroller, Palm Beach County.

The Clerk & Comptroller’s eRecording service eliminates the need to mail or deliver documents to the courthouse. The electronic service is available around the clock, providing customers with more efficient and convenient service.
“Although we’ve offered eRecording since 2014, more customers today are now taking advantage of the convenience it provides by safely and securely submitting documents online rather than coming to the courthouse,” said Clerk & Comptroller Sharon R. Bock, Esq.
