I recently moved to this area and went to this office to conduct business. The entire staff was exceptionally friendly, courteous, polite and very professional in every way. A nice lady name Brenda assisted wife and me, she was above and beyond the average customer service representative and I have ever encountered. This was my first time in this or any other KY government state office. I am totally impressed with the way they do business here, was easy in and easy out with no delays.

Mr Smith went out of his way to provide information I needed to obtain a special Military license plate. I simply left him a message and he called me at home the next day with the details. Great Customer service by Mr Smith and his office.
