Attorneys who do business with Rockdale County Superior, State, Magistrate and Probate Courts can now access court records and calendars online, saving time and resources.

According to Ruth A. Wilson, Clerk of Superior and State Courts for the Rockdale Judicial Circuit, every attorney of record with these courts can remotely see and print documents and calendars by signing up for the service at the Clerk's website, www.RockdaleClerk.com . Click on the Online Services menu and select Attorney Secure Access.

Wilson said, "This is something attorneys have been requesting for years. We are pleased finally to be able to respond to their requests. By providing this remote access, we reduce the number of calls, visits and emails we need to handle. That enables us to make better use of our limited resources while keeping our headcount low. So far the response from the legal community has been quite enthusiastic. It is a win-win for the courts, the attorneys and the general public."

This same technology can provide remote access to the general public in the near future, said Wilson. "We are working very hard to modernize our processes and procedures to take advantage of the investments we have already made in court technology. Very soon, we will also launch an online jury management system which will further streamline our operations."
