In plain English
The Osvaldo N. Soto Miami-Dade Justice Center is at 20 N.W. 1st Avenue, Miami, Florida 33128, in downtown Miami. The court's directions place it at the corner of N.W. 1st Street and N.W. 1st Avenue. Court hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday; Clerk office hours are on a separate Clerk page.
Downtown parking is tight. The court says parking is limited, on the street and off it, and that the best bet is Metro Bus or Metrorail, getting off at Government Center station. If you drive from the north, the page routes you off I-95 South at N.W. 8th Street, south to N.W. 3rd Street, east three blocks to N.W. 1st Avenue, then about five blocks south. From the south, take US 1 North to I-95 North and the N.W. 8th Street exit. A third set of directions covers drivers coming from the northwest or southwest on FL-836, the Dolphin Expressway, which has toll portions.
The page does not say which kinds of cases are heard here, so confirm with the court or Clerk if you are unsure.
