"ON THE ROAD WITH TONY..."

The Macomb County Clerk's office has so many good things to communicate that we decided to put together a newsletter to share with our residents.?

In the past we relied on Facebook to communicate, but we realized many residents weren?t receiving our communications. This platform of sending you an email is a low cost way of letting you know about your Clerk?s office.

We look forward to assisting you in 2023 with the many service improvements we?ve made, not only for your in-person visits, but to the many self-service opportunities on our website. Please see the article below for more information on how it?s never been easier to visit your Clerk?s Office.

There?s still time to visit us before the end of the year and see for yourself how committed our staff is to helping you with your service requests.

Stay tuned for our January newsletter as we share with you some key statistics of 2022.

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

"It?s Never Been Easier to
Visit the Clerk?s Office"

It?s never been easier to obtain Clerk?s Office services remotely or visit the Clerk?s Office building for in-person service.

The Clerk?s Office website [ [link removed] ] features easy access to Macomb County land records, death records index, business records index and court records. The website also features a robust self-service lineup, including ability to purchase County death records, marriage records, birth records and court records remotely. There are also convenient online applications systems, including an easy marriage application, notary public application and business application.

For those who prefer in-person services, wait times for Clerk?s Office services in all buildings are down significantly. According to Macomb County Clerk Anthony G. Forlini, ?Our visitors usually get in and out in about 10 minutes. You don?t need an appointment, but our new appointment system for Register of Deeds, Vital Records and CPL Application spreads out our visitors and also keeps wait times down. Our knowledgeable and friendly staff are waiting to serve you!?
