Welcome,
Nearly every citizen of Laurel County is touched by our office in one way or another. I
advise the Fiscal Court on important legal issues facing our County. Our staff prosecutes all
traffic offenses that occur here, including serious offenses such as DUI.
We also prosecute all misdemeanor cases that occur in Laurel County, in addition to
participating in the prosecution of the early stages of felony prosecution. We also prosecute
in Juvenile Court.
We administer a cold check program, collect delinquent taxes, assist in guardianship and
mental health cases and help parents collect the support due to their families. As you can
see, it's a busy place around here. I hope you find this site helpful. Please look around, click
on the "Contact Us" link if you need further assistance. I am blessed to serve as your
county attorney. It is a job that I enjoy and take very seriously. I look forward to serving you

Child Support
We believe that adequate and timely child support is the
most basic, but essential duty that a parent has in our
community and that the obligation to pay child support
is not an installment debt to be paid whenever
convenient.
We believe that although money alone will not
adequately guarantee a child’s complete wellbeing, the
failure to pay renders a child more likely to be destitute,
neglected or abused.
To this end, we work diligently to ensure that child
support payments are made in full and on time. We are
mindful and take serious our duty to provide fair and
courteous representation of the interests of the people of
the Commonwealth and particularly the citizens of
Laurel County in all child support proceedings
Cold Check Enforcement
Each year merchants lose millions of dollars due to
receiving bad checks. Over 8,000 bad checks are
written per day in Kentucky. This loss to businesses
pushes the cost of goods and services higher. And,
make no mistake, writing a worthless check is a
crime
