Recorded documents in Louisiana — deeds, mortgages, liens, plats, and other land records — are filed with the Clerk of Court (Conveyance Office) in each parish.
What this page covers: Louisiana recorded document searches — deeds, mortgages, assignments, liens, plats, and other instruments filed in the public land records. What it does not cover: Property valuations or tax data (those are on the Property Records page).
Where to start: Go to the Clerk of Court (Conveyance Office) in the parish where the property is located. Many parish clerk of court (conveyance office)s offer online document search by grantor/grantee name, book/page, or instrument number.
Common mistake: Recorded documents show what was filed — they do not confirm current ownership or lien status without a full title search. A deed in the index does not mean it is the most recent transfer.
