By far some of the worst customer service I have experienced with government offices; my job requires me to speak with officials all day. Some of them are absolute gems and the vast majority are competent and pleasant enough to deal with. Not Lake County. I've called on no less than 45 occasions to get a document and the phone has only been picked up twice to date. I just called (it is 8:41 am) and the woman who answered the phone barked, "We don't open up until 8:30!" and hung up on me. Um.. okay?

Doesn't care for someone who is taking care of someone who's on oxygen and forces you to get out to Lake County Court House for Jury duty. Plus needs to understand for those who cannot make Jury duty shouldn't be called upon

Keep sending me stuff at the wrong address even though I put my address on file with the court. So unprofessional and not organized or efficient at all. Asked for copies of stuff filed because I didn't get it in the mail because of their mistake, and they wanted to charge me. If you want to work here, and absolutely can't do your job nobody cares and you would be perfect.

I got lucky because there was absolutely nobody else there. I didn't get done what I needed to do, but, the girl behind the counter was very friendly, polite, explanatory, and apologetic for me not being able to complete my transaction
