Lorain County Recorder's Office

Lorain County Recorder's Office The Lorain County Recorder’s Office, led by Mike Doran, maintains and preserves official land records and veterans’ discharge documents.

It is the County Recorder who has the important and indispensable task of keeping vital records pertaining to ownership in real estate (land) and to all encumbrances or liens upon it. Without the work of the County Recorder in recording, safekeeping and organizing all documents in a competent and logical manner it would be nearly impossible to purchase land and be assured of a clear title or to lend money with land as security.
