We will be opening to the public 7/13 by appointment only due to the size of the building and CDC Guidelines. Until then, please follow the 6/1 order below.  

Per Order of the Supreme Judicial Court and the Probate and Family Court Standing Order 2-20, both effective June 1, 2020, the Barnstable Probate and Family Court will be closed to the public until July 1, 2020.  The orders are linked below.  This means that the public and the lawyers will not be allowed in the building until at least July 1, 2020.  However, the court is working to hear as many cases as possible via zoom or by telephone.  The Court is still working on a reduced staff in order to maintain proper social distancing.  My office will accept emergency filings at barnstableprobate@jud.state.ma.us.  You may also send a question to this email address.  All other filings should be done by mail or Efiling.

If you have a question, please call (508) 375-6710.   Please also visit our new virtual registry at https://www.mass.gov/service-details/barnstable-probate-and-family-court-virtual-registry  

E-filing can be done here  https://efilema.tylerhost.net/ofsweb#e 

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Sincerely,

Anastasia Welsh Perrino, Esq.
