Records and Copy Requests

Records

The Probate Court is open Monday through Friday 9:00 a.m - 5:00 p.m for viewing of records.

The public is able to come in any time during office hours and view probate court files that are of public record. Copies can be made for $0.50 per page, or if it is a older document archived using our Papervision system, then copies will be $1.00 per page.

Generally, we will NOT accept phone, mailed, or emailed requests to search records. We do not have the staff necessary to search the records. If you need a search done, you may come in person and search the records yourself or hire an abstractor or attorney to search the records for you.

Our office is located in the Union County Court House, 210 W. Main Street, Union, SC 29379: When entering through the N. Herndon Street Entrance, we are the first office on the left.

Copy Requests

If you need a copy of a specific document, please send us a copy request by mail and include:

• Case name or name of the Decedent
• Specific Documents that you would like copies of (Example: Will, Final Accounting, etc.)

Once we receive your request, we will contact you with the amount of money you owe for the copies. There will be a $5.00 processing fee, in addition to the $0.50 per pages for regular copies and $1.00 for Papervision copies. Once we have received payment, we will mail you copies.
