Worcester County Family Law Courts: What You Need to Know
If you are dealing with a family law matter in Worcester County, your case will likely be heard in one of the local divisions of the Massachusetts Probate and Family Court. The Worcester Probate and Family Court, located at 225 Main Street, Worcester, MA 01608, is the primary venue for most family-related cases in the county. This courthouse handles divorce proceedings, custody disputes, child support enforcement, guardianships, and more. It is a busy court, serving one of the largest populations in Central Massachusetts, so timely filing and procedural accuracy are crucial.
In addition to Worcester, there are satellite sessions in towns such as Fitchburg and Leominster, though most substantive hearings and trials are held at the main Worcester location. For those involved in mediation or court-ordered parenting programs, these are often conducted in local facilities or approved private offices within the county. Understanding court deadlines, local judge preferences, and mandatory forms can be overwhelming. That’s why working with a local attorney who knows the system is so beneficial. Attorney Gannon regularly appears before the judges at this court and maintains strong professional relationships within the Worcester County legal community.
