Marrero Residents Directory
The Marrero residents directory covers public records held by Jefferson Parish offices that serve the West Bank. Marrero is a large census-designated place in Jefferson Parish, and it sits right along the West Bank Expressway. You can search for people by name, look up who owns a piece of land, pull court case files, or check voter rolls through several parish agencies. Most of the records you need start at the Jefferson Parish Clerk of Court or the Assessor. The West Bank offices in Gretna and Marrero handle much of the day-to-day work for residents on this side of the river, so you do not always have to cross to the East Bank.

Marrero Residents Directory Property Records
Property searches in Marrero start at the Jefferson Parish Assessor. The West Bank office is at 200 Derbigny Street, Suite 1100, Gretna, LA 70053. The phone is (504) 362-4100.

You can look up property by address, parcel number, or owner name. The Assessor site shows assessed values, legal descriptions, and estimated tax amounts. It also has a tax estimator tool so you can see what a given property would owe based on current millage rates. This data is free to search. No subscription is needed.
For deed records and mortgage history, you need to use JeffNet or visit the Clerk of Court in person. The Clerk holds mortgage and conveyance records dating back to 1825. Electronic index searches start from January 1967. Older records from 1825 to 1966 are available as scanned images. If you are tracing who has owned a piece of land in Marrero over the years, these records are the ones that will give you the full chain of title.
Note: The Assessor data is for tax purposes only and is not a legal record of ownership.
Marrero Voter Records
The Jefferson Parish Registrar of Voters has a West Bank office right in Marrero. It is at the Charles Odom Building, 5001 West Bank Expressway, Suite C-2, Marrero, LA 70072. The phone is (504) 349-5690. This is the closest registrar office for Marrero residents. You can register to vote, change your address, or update your party affiliation here.
Voter data is an important part of the Marrero residents directory. Voter registration data is public under Louisiana law. You can check if someone is a registered voter through the Louisiana Voter Portal. The portal shows registration status, polling location, and election dates. It also has sample ballots and past election results. Voter rolls can help confirm whether a person lives in the Marrero area, since the data includes their registered address and the parish they vote in.
Under R.S. 44:1, voter records are considered public records in Louisiana. That means anyone can request access to this data, though certain details like Social Security numbers are always redacted from what gets released.
Jefferson Parish Records Requests
If you need a specific record from a Jefferson Parish agency and it is not online, you can file a formal public records request. The Jefferson Parish public records request portal lets you submit, track, and receive records online. The Parish Attorney's Office handles these requests. The West Bank office is at 200 Derbigny Street, Suite 5200, Gretna, LA 70053. The phone is (504) 364-3822.
Louisiana law gives you a strong right to public records. Under R.S. 44:31, any person who has reached the age of majority can inspect, copy, or reproduce any public record. Agencies have three business days to respond. If they deny your request, they must give you a written reason. You can challenge the denial in court if you think the refusal was wrong. This applies to all Marrero records held by Jefferson Parish offices.

Searching the Marrero Residents Directory
There is no single database for all Marrero records. Each parish agency runs its own system. To do a thorough search, you may need to check two or three different sources. Start with what you are looking for. For court cases, go to JeffNet or the Clerk of Court. For property data, use the Assessor. For voter info, try the state voter portal.
Some tips for searching Marrero records:
- Have the full name of the person you are looking for
- Property searches work best with an address or parcel number
- Court lookups can use a name or case number
- The $5 JeffNet day pass is the cheapest online option
- In-person visits to the Gretna courthouse can turn up older files
Older records that have not been scanned may only be found with a trip to the courthouse. The Clerk of Court staff can pull files from the vault that are not in JeffNet yet. Bring a valid photo ID if you plan to visit. The Gretna courthouse is just a short drive from Marrero on the West Bank Expressway.
Under R.S. 44:32, custodians of public records must present them for inspection during regular office hours. That means if you show up during business hours with a valid request, they are legally required to let you see the records. Fees for copies vary by document type but are set by parish ordinance and state law. This covers all records in the Marrero residents directory.

Document images for criminal cases reach back to 1840. You can search by defendant name or case number to find charges, dispositions, and sentencing data.
Criminal records searches through the Louisiana State Police are another option. Under R.S. 15:587, certain criminal history information can be released to the public for a fee. The state police process these requests and provide a report based on fingerprint or name-based checks. This is separate from the court records held at the parish level.
