Beginning on January 3, 2007, the Broward Sheriff's Office (BSO) Department of Detention began recording all outgoing inmate telephone calls, except those calls between the inmate and his/her counsel.

For non-attorney calls, the inmate and the recipient of the call will be notified via a pre-recorded message when a phone call is subject to recording, and the recipient will be required to consent to such recording for the call to be made.

For attorney calls, BSO's phone service provider has created a 'do not record' list of attorneys phone numbers in the tri-county area that are on file with the Florida Bar. This list is updated on an annual basis, so it may not capture all attorney phone numbers listed with the Bar in the tri-county area.

If an attorney receives a call from a client in the jail on a phone number listed with the Florida Bar and a message is heard indicating that the call will be recorded, then the call will be recorded if accepted by the attorney. If the attorney does not wish the call to be recorded, the attorney is requested to contact the BSO Inmate Telephone Coordinator at 2926 State Road 7 Lauderdale Lakes, Florida 33311.
