ST. LUCIE COUNTY, Fla. (PRWEB) June 10, 2015 -- Electronic recording (e-recording) in St. Lucie County is now available through Simplifile, the nation’s largest e-recording service, enabling faster, more cost-effective recording of land documents and records.

“We’re pleased to offer this service to our customers and provide them with a more convenient, secure online recording option,” said Joseph E.
