Deb from the clerk office was very unprofessional. Not willing to help or do her job.

Another example of incompetent government emplyees that are completely incapable of showing even a sliver of respect for people. Can’t even put the correct phone number in their correspondence 🙄

The clerk was helpful and straightforward! Just remember to come early as the parking is rough around the court house and be prepared for a search.

The lady i talked to at the front desk was very rude and unprofessional . I was asking questions and she was just hateful, she treated me like I was stupid. The old white lady with blonde hair and glasses if you hate your job quit!
