West Columbia Justice of Peace Court serves the residents of Brazoria County, the 189th largest county in Texas state. The county falls in the third senatorial district and the 11th congressional district. As a result, it holds a very special role that makes it supported by both the West Columbia district clerk and county clerk. Issues that should be filed with the county clerk or the district clerk should be strictly filed within the respective courts; luckily, the staff is friendly and will help you through the process.

The current West Columbia Justice of Peace Court judge has been in office since 2010 and has dedicated his life serving the West Columbia. The courts, the district clerk, and the county clerk’s office are located in the historic Brazoria County Courthouse. The West Columbia Justice of Peace Court is located on 111 10th Street in the city of West Columbia, the Brazoria county seat.

West Columbia Justice of Peace Court was first built in 1849 in the Brazoria Courthouse Square where the first sessions of the court were held alfresco underneath the boughs of oak trees in July 1865.
