About visiting the probate court

About visiting the Boise County Court

The term probate court is a common term loosely referring to the probate division located within a state or county courthouse. In the state of Idaho, the Superior Court is the level of court responsible for overseeing matters related to probate court.

Boise County Court is listed as a registered probate court within Boise County, Idaho.

In most instances within Idaho, there is at least one Superior Court courthouse location within each county. Sometimes a county may have multiple courthouses and may also have multiple probate court locations. Such is often the case in larger metropolis counties where population is dense or also in spread-out, rural counties, which may use a courthouse annex or satellite office system to accommodate nearby citizens with easier access in proximity or distance.

About visiting the probate court

Who to speak with when visiting the Boise County probate court

Upon visiting the Boise County Court, look for signs or directions to the probate division within the main courthouse. Once you’ve located the probate division, make your way to any reception desks and ask to speak with a probate clerk or probate judge. The probate clerk at Boise County Court may or may not require appointments based upon the busyness of the probate court, so it’s a great idea to call ahead.

Plan ahead to be early in case available parking is limited and be prepared for formal security measures upon entering the building, as courthouses are official state and federal property. This generally includes passing through metal detectors and allowing search of any belongings.

Many courthouses do not allow cell phones, so keep that in mind as your phone may need to be turned off upon entering the courthouse, or even left outside.
Infographic reminder to bring cash, government issued ID, death certificate and relevant last will & testament documents when visiting probate court.

Their police staff is very kind and helpful. However the court itself I do not feel is fair. Not to mention the Court House literally never answers their phones. I understand it is a small city but after several phone calls and voicemails it took almost 2 weeks to receive a call back, and the second time I needed assistance with something they did not return my call at all. Very unprofessional.

Absolutely terrible at answering calls. I live 9 hours away and can not come in for a minor traffic violation so I'm trying to set up payments and they can't even do their damn job and answer a phone call. Will be very upset if my license gets suspended because you can't do your job!!! Would rate 0 stars if I could.
