Late last year, I finally was able to file my divorce (after waiting 5 years to be able to do it) thanks to the help from the ladies that work here. They were so kind and helpful, very happy with the experience. Thank you all so much!

A fine example of how to mismanage a government office with limited hours of operation. The residents of Columbia County are deprived of 5 operational hours a week due to an inability of management to figure out how to stagger the limited number of county employees out to lunch while still providing services to the CC residents during the 9-5 office hours.

We are lucky to have an absolutely awesome County Clerk's office. They go out of their way for residents of Columbia County. I needed to get documents stamped for the State Apostille process and they have been super helpful. Whatever you need, they help. All the staff is super friendly. I had to deal with other counties for various reasons and it is never as easy as with this office. It makes me proud to be a resident.

These have to be the rudest and disrespectful government employees i have ever seen especially Theresa and Jaime. Now let's talk about Patty Gallo the deputy clerk that does not know that a county building is a public building Wow don't they make you proud.

Had trouble with a parking ticket that was issued to a car I didn’t own. Tried NYS DMV office and was passed around from operator to operator with wait times up to 3 hours. Found Holly Tanner’s email on the website and she responded within 15 minutes. Fantastic service !!!
