The Hendry County court is also responsible for overseeing an estate to make sure debts are paid and proper distribution is made if assets of a deceased person are to be properly distributed to the heirs or beneficiaries. Wills are filed by the Circuit City Court. Disposition of Personal Property Without Administration can be filed filed to request release of assets of the deceased to the person who paid the final expenses; such as funeral bills or medical bills for the last 60 days. Patrons must obtain the form from the Clerk of the Circuit Court in the Probate Division.

The Small Claims Court Division handles all matters of resolving civil disputes involving amounts less than $2,500.00. The Small Claim forms are provided by the Clerk of the Court as well.

An additional fee is applied if the party awarded wants to obtain a certified copy of the Judgment re-recorded in the Official Records.
