PROFESSIONAL VISITATION WITH INMATES
Every effort will be made to accommodate Lawyers and other professional visitors needing or wanting to consult with their clients. However, requests to visit with an inmate at the Richmond County Detention Center should be communicated to the jail at least 24 hours in advance. Requests may be faxed to the jail at (910) 997-8262 or emailed to jailofficer@richmondnc.com.
Professional visitors should be aware the least restrictive timing of a visit is between 12:00PM-3:30PM Monday through Friday. Professional visits which may be needed outside of the normal timeframe require the authorization of the Jail Administrator.
Restrictions to Professional visits may apply due to meals, sick calls, facility emergencies, mass arrests, and events beyond the control of facility management.
Unless accompanied by the inmate’s attorney, paraprofessional aides must also produce a letter signed by the attorney authorizing visitation with the inmate. Such authorization must be on the attorney’s official letterhead and must contain the inmate’s name, the court jurisdiction, case number, the full name of the person or persons authorized to visit with the inmate, and the signature of the attorney. Paraprofessionals must produce this authorization during each visit.
Professional visitors will not give any item to an inmate (to be retained in the inmate’s possession when the visitor leaves) without the expressed permission of a detention officer. For example, a visitor may “loan” an ink pen so an inmate can sign a document but may not “give” it to the inmate and MUST retrieve the ink pen or other item from the inmate prior to ending the visit.
No recording devices of ANY kind are permitted in the Richmond County Detention Center without prior approval by the Jail Administrator.
All Professional visitors WILL be required to log their arrival and departure from the facility.

iWebVisit Refund/Cancellation Policy
If you have any questions, please send a live chat to Customer Support.
• All remote visitation sessions are pre-paid and non-refundable. We will consider providing a refund if the inmate is transferred or released prior to the scheduled visit.
• Visits that are terminated due to a policy violation will not be refunded.
• Any paid visit that is unsuccessful because the inmate could not attend (court, lockdown, work, or other jail-related issues.) will be credited with a courtesy code. The code will be emailed to the inbox of the person who paid for the visit and may be used to reschedule at no cost.
• After the visit is scheduled, the time cannot be changed without first canceling the visit.
• For standard (Non-Confidential) visitors, when you cancel a paid visit at least 4 hours prior to the visit start time, you will be credited with a courtesy code.
• If you need to cancel your visit, go to “My Account” and look for the trash can icon next to your visit. You will be emailed a courtesy code to reschedule the visit at no cost. If you do not see this icon as an option, it is too close to the scheduled start time, and the visit cannot be canceled.
• If you miss a visit for any reason, no credit can be provided because the jail portion of the visit occurred whether you participated in it or not.
• You must join visits on time. Standard (Non-Confidential) visits that are not joined in time are subject to termination, and no credit or refund will be provided.
