The worst thing that has happened to commerce relating to property, is when tax payers like me who need easy access to open and free public records, now must sign up and pay for them.

I will personally like to thank mrs/miss. Jackie at the district court office. For going above and beyond to get me the paperwork I needed after numerous run arounds. So if you need any help ask for her.

Had a great experience with the Clay County Clerk’s Office! The staff was courteous, knowledgeable, and efficient, which made the whole process smooth from start to finish. You can tell they care about serving the community and doing things the right way. Thanks Judge Campbell! FYI, thanks to Jim Read’s review, I learned that you can submit an open records request by emailing the Auditor’s Office and there’s no cost involved, which is perfect. It’s great to see transparency in local government.

Amy and the staff at the Clay County Clerk’s Office were fantastic. Amy was so patient and kind as she walked me through the record search process. I was thinking it would be simple, but quickly realized you really need specific information and date ranges to get accurate results. Amy took the time to explain everything clearly, and then worked with me over the phone until she had gathered all the records I needed. She even went the extra step to email me the documents once everything was ready. Her professionalism, patience, and friendliness made what could have been a frustrating process smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciate her help and highly recommend the staff at the Clay County Clerk’s Office. Thank you Amy!
