Before You Go

Visiting the Wake County Courthouse

General guidance for any North Carolina courthouse visit, not legal advice.

Before You Go

Arrive at least 30 minutes early to get through security screening and find your courtroom. Double-check your hearing date and time beforehand.

What to Bring

A government-issued photo ID, your case or citation number, any paperwork or evidence for your case, and a pen.

What Not to Bring

Weapons of any kind are prohibited and will be turned away at security. Leave large bags at home, and silence or turn off your phone inside the courtroom.

Dress Code

Dress neatly and conservatively. Business casual is a safe choice. Avoid hats, shorts, tank tops, and clothing with offensive images or language.

Language Interpreters

North Carolina courts provide free interpreters. If you need one, request it ahead of time through the Clerk of Court so an interpreter is scheduled for your hearing.

In the Courtroom

Silence your phone, remove your hat, and wait quietly until your case is called. Stand when the judge enters, address the judge as "Your Honor," and speak only when it is your turn.
