Welcome to the Monmouth County Surrogate’s Court
As Surrogate I am responsible for the administration of the
services offered by the Surrogates Court.
In addition, I serve as Clerk to Superior Court, Chancery Division,
Probate Part, and Clerk to Family Part for adoptions.
I have compiled the following information to help answer any
questions you may have regarding probate of a Will, qualifying as Administrator
of an Estate, applying for Guardianship of an individual, or applying for an
Adoption.
My office is in the Hall of Records, One East Main Street in
Freehold, NJ and is fully staffed and conducting all business operations. Our
office hours are Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Please know you have the option to complete

receptionist for processing.
My primary goal is to serve you, especially when you may be
