The right first step depends on the kind of matter and the court or agency named in your paperwork. Coffee County has a county clerk records listing, while Douglas Municipal Court gives separate instructions for hearings and citation inquiries. Jody D. Peterman, LLC offers personal injury and criminal defense services from its Valdosta office. A call can help you discuss the matter and confirm consultation arrangements.
Route county court-record questions to the clerk
The GSCCCA Coffee County clerk entry lists the clerk’s office at 101 S. Peterson Avenue, Suite B-18, Douglas, GA 31533, phone 912-384-2865. It identifies Superior, State and Juvenile court records. If your question concerns records in one of those courts, use the clerk listing to confirm how to direct your inquiry.
That listing is for the county clerk; it does not establish that every Coffee County case or hearing belongs there. Check your paperwork for the court named, case information and any instructions. A records office and a hearing location serve different purposes, so do not assume the clerk’s address is where you must appear.

Check Douglas Municipal Court instructions on the notice
The City of Douglas distinguishes Municipal Court hearings at the Coffee County Law Enforcement Center, 825 Thompson Drive, Douglas, GA 31535, from the citation-payment window at 225 West Bryan Street, Douglas, GA 31533. Citation inquiries use 912-260-3614. These are separate locations and functions; do not substitute the payment-window address for the hearing venue.
Use the court named on your actual notice and follow its current instructions. The city’s general information does not establish that every matter is a municipal-court case, that a particular person must appear at a specific time, or that an appearance can be skipped. If something is unclear, contact the court using the information on your notice or the citation inquiry number.

Prepare for a consultation from Valdosta
Jody D. Peterman, LLC lists one office at 304 North Ashley Street, Valdosta, GA 31601, phone 888-599-9052, and describes service statewide in Georgia. The firm does not list a Coffee County office. Call to discuss your matter and confirm consultation arrangements rather than assuming a local office or a particular meeting format.
The firm offers personal injury and criminal defense services. In a consultation, you can explain what happened, identify the court or other organization involved, and ask what information may help the firm assess the matter. A consultation can help organize questions; it is not a substitute for individualized legal advice about your circumstances, and a call does not promise acceptance or a particular result.

Organize records according to the matter
For a court-record question, gather the case information and the court name shown on your paperwork before contacting the clerk. The Coffee County listing identifies Superior, State and Juvenile records, but it does not confirm that the clerk holds every record you may need or determine where a hearing will take place.
For a Douglas Municipal Court citation or hearing question, keep the notice or citation available and use the instructions tied to that document. For a personal injury or criminal defense consultation, organize the records you already have and write down unanswered questions. The firm can discuss what you provide, but the appropriate next steps depend on the matter and cannot be determined from a general county directory.
