Criminal Cases in West Palm Beach

West Palm Beach is the county seat and home to the Main Courthouse at 205 North Dixie Highway. Many Palm Beach County criminal proceedings are assigned there, but the case number, division, and official notice determine the correct location.

An arrest in the city may involve municipal, county, state, or other law-enforcement personnel. The defense analysis starts with the actual reports, recordings, charging documents, and court docket rather than assumptions based only on the arresting agency.

Serving West Palm Beach, Palm Beach, Mangonia Park, and surrounding central-county communities.

Do You Think a Warrant Exists?
