About Jim: I took office on January 3, 2005. Prior to becoming the Register of Deeds, I was an Investigator on the Caledonia Police Department. I had been a police officer for almost twelve years. I also was a realtor for Century 21 in Racine.

I’m fortunate to have a wonderful wife and two fantastic kids. My children are 5 and 8. I enjoy coaching and watching them participate in sports (basketball, baseball, and soccer). I’m an avid sports fan. I love watching football and basketball. Go Packers! Go Badgers!

My wife and I also own a miniature golf course and driving range in Racine. The name of it is Mulligan’s.

About the Register of Deeds officeOur office processes more than 60,000 documents each year.  Like many other counties, we utilize computerized indexing and high speed scanning equipment to process these documents as efficiently as possible. 

In 2003 Racine County became the 10th county in the nation to begin accepting completely electronic documents.  In this model, financial institutions create satisfactions of mortgages in a web-based application that submits these documents to our electronic recording server via the Internet.  The documents are never converted to paper.  The system has built-in edits to ensure that all required information is included.  Endorsements are applied electronically.  Indexing is completely automated.  No manual data entry is required.  The entire process takes only 45 seconds!
