Was not pleased when I made an appointment and had to leave work early to make it to said appointment just to be turned away because I was given poor instructions. I was trying to get the title of a truck of my deceased father switched into my name. They asked if he had a personal representative so of course I say yes my mother. They then tell me all she has to do is sign the title and I can bring that along with his death certificate and I'm good to go. I asked if there was anything else at all that I needed or had to do and they say nope that's it. Awesome. I show up and they tell me I need paperwork stating that she is the personal representative, and also she personally needed to print his name and sign it in addition to hers in order to switch everything over. She by this point has gone on a trip to utah. I scheduled this appointment nearly a week in advance only to be turned away within 2 minutes of arriving. Not happy. So long story short, if you ever have a title you need to get changed into your name in any kind of situation similar to this you better badger the hell out of them to make sure there is no additional paper work or signatures required because if you dont then you will probably get what I got.

No waiting in line. Mindy was very helpful in getting a car transferred and plates updated. She was cheerful and efficient.

This towns courthouse is too focused on no dogs, hence my opinion of this town is not in the positive.
