I’ve known Doug Welborn most of my adult life and I’m humbled to call him my friend. Doug has proven to be a professional, innovative, effective, efficient, and exceptional Clerk of Court. More importantly, he serves all of us with not only his knowledge, but with humility and a servant’s heart. Both his exemplary office and diverse staff are perfect examples of a master class in records keeping, records preservation, online services and many other important public services that his office has to offer. Doug’s motto is “service with a smile” and that’s exactly what you get.
I know that Doug Welborn will continue to serve all of us with excellence and a servant’s heart.Senator Yvonne Dorsey ColombRetired District 14
As a lifelong resident of Central, I grew up with the Welborn family. They were always active in the school system and the community. As a practicing attorney, I couldn’t ask for anything more than what the East Baton Rouge Parish Clerk of Court’s office under the guidance of Doug Welborn has provided. The staff is always courteous and professional. Our filings receive immediate attention and are quickly processed and sent on to their destination. When looking into old cases or records, they are always helpful and attentive in making sure that the information sought can be found and reviewed. I cannot think of a way that our Clerk of Court’s office in East Baton Rouge Parish could function more efficiently and would happily see Mr. Welborn serve as the Clerk of Court for years to come.Christopher James JenkinsAttorney-at-Law

Doug Welborn has been a proven successful, reliable leader of his office and his community. He consistently accomplishes all goals, accurately maintains the historical documents of his parish and provides phenomenal service to all who do business with his staff. I have known Doug for eleven years. He has always presented himself to the Clerks of Court across the state as a productive and forward-thinking leader. I have been impressed with his character, diligence and work ethic. He has been an inspiration by his steady demonstration of rising to any challenge or endeavor he may face. Doug has hosted in his office myself and many other Clerks of Court across the state to allow us the opportunity to view their technologically advanced system. He and his staff have always gone above and beyond to welcome and educate the other parishes as to his office's procedures. The knowledge of his staff, as well as the hospitality, is a true testament to Doug's leadership.

I've known Doug for 28 years now and he's been a friend, colleague and mentor. Doug's outstanding record of financial management, record management, and client service is something my office admires.

As a researcher, I use the EBR Clerk of Court’s office quite frequently. Doug Welborn and his staff have accomplished something most parishes in our state have yet to do: they make it easy to research and gather information in a user-friendly manner. In fact they have set the standard on how to do this and have many parishes following their example. That is just one of the reasons I support Doug in his re-election as Clerk of Court. Doug has also assembled an incredible staff of professionals that are as receptive to the public as he is - and that is hard to find in this day and age. Personal attention is a jewel to find, and they have perfected it to a fine art. Like Doug, when you call anyone in his offices, you get top notch assistance. It is awesome. Their online service is easy to use, and if you don’t know how, you can go to their office and use their computers or have someone there assist you. That is golden!

Our East Baton Rouge Parish Clerk of Court gives us excellent service. He has implemented electronic or “E-filing,” …pleadings and paperwork filed with the court can be done over the internet…He was an early adopter of making court filings and land records available to be viewed or purchased online; now most other parishes are doing likewise... His staff has gone “above and beyond” many, many times to help me and other attorneys I know. Doug Welborn runs an excellent Clerk of Court’s office.Jeffrey S. WittenbrinkAttorney at Law
The real estate industry finds itself in solid hands at the East Baton Rouge Clerk’s Office under Doug’s leadership. The ease of filing, the friendly service and the technology-based research capabilities exist at a very high and professional level. His going over and above to offer safe drive-up service while we waited during the initial COVID-19 closures saved the day.Bruce W. Dodd Louisiana Title
Doug Welborn and his staff at the East Baton Rouge Clerk’s Office have upgraded their technology to the newest, most dependable, and safest available on the market today. They provide fast and friendly service to the citizens of East Baton Rouge Parish. Louis PerretLafayette Parish Clerk of Court
The East Baton Rouge Parish Clerk’s Office leads the way in Louisiana in use of technology in the storage, quick retrieval, and protection of personal legal records. Doug Welborn earns an excellent grade for his work.Roger CutrerGulf South Land Title Resources
When it comes to the protection and security of vital personal and legal records, the EBR Clerk of Court’s office simply leads the way in innovation and service.Melissa MileyAttorney at Law
Doug Welborn’s commitment to fast, friendly, and secure service for his customers at the Clerk’s Office is a model for the entire state.Charles Jagneaux St. Landry Parish Clerk of Court
A few words from a proud staff member of the Clerk's Office: I have worked for the East Baton Rouge Parish Clerk of Court’s Office for 22 years. The Clerk of Court touches everyone’s life in one way or another at some point and we have been fortunate for many years to have an outstanding one in Doug Welborn. During my years of working in his administration, I am proud of what we have accomplished. If you don’t know much about what the office does that means we are doing the perfect government job. We are serving you without you even knowing we were involved. If you have a more extensive idea about what our office does then you already know what a great job we do. I am proud that Doug has always been a leader of technology among district Clerks of Court in the state. Years before I arrived, he had already been a pioneer of online index access and provided a website for the office in the earliest days of popular internet usage. Our electronic filing service has continued to improve the efficiency and convenience of our office in serving you. Since our office began these services, over half the Clerks’ offices in the state have adopted the same technologically advanced services that we offer. Due to our efforts, you can now go to one website and electronically file your documents (civil, family, criminal, mortgage records, and more) in the majority of parishes. If that isn’t proven leadership then I don’t know what is. Please consider voting for Doug this fall. If he continues to be your Clerk of Court you will keep a proven leader in the Clerk’s office.
