Home to 31,000 Indianans, Gibson County lies directly north of Vanderburgh County and the Hoosier State’s third-largest city of Evansville.

The building houses the county clerk’s office, the superior court, and the circuit court.
One of the principal duties of the Gibson County Clerk is filing, recording, and entering all orders pertaining to civil, juvenile, and criminal matters.

Circuit courts in Indiana have primary jurisdiction over felony criminal cases and cases involving children. Holding the later responsibility makes the Gibson County Circuit Court the typical venue for divorce cases that involve questions over child custody, child support, and parental/grandparent visitation. Some individuals who are on probation in Gibson County also report to the circuit court. The phone number is (812) 385-4885.
