Address inmate mail to: 925-B Peachtree St NE - Box 2062 Atlanta, GA 30309

At Forsyth County Jail, "legal mail" is only accepted when it comes from an attorney of record. If you're family or a friend, don't try sending your personal letter in packaging that looks like legal or business mail. It won't be treated as legal mail.

  • ✓ Clearly mark the envelope: “Private Legal Mail”
  • ✓ Include the inmate’s name
  • ✓ Include the inmate’s cell location

Forsyth County Jail does not accept bulk mail for inmates. That means no copies of internet sites, no large stacks of scanned pages, and no oversized packets. If you want to share information, keep it simple. A few pages is fine; a thick bundle of printouts will likely be rejected.

Warning: Personal correspondence mixed in with legal or business mail will be destroyed. Keep your personal letters completely separate. If something truly is legal mail, mark it "Private Legal Mail" and include the inmate's name and cell location.
