The clerk's office handles all filings for the superior court - felony criminal cases, civil suits, domestic relations proceedings, real estate recordings, and equity matters. Bryan County is one of the faster-growing counties in the Savannah metropolitan area, which means the clerk's office sees a growing volume of property transactions, new civil filings, and criminal cases each year.
