My husband and I went here to get him a birth certificate. The lady that helped us was very nice and professional. When we walked in she was the one to the right. Much thanks to her.

They treated me very professionally despite being busy at the time of my visit. I went in needing a birth certificate for my son and within 30 minutes I'm out the door with one. There was plenty of waiting area and the forms needed were easy to fill out. If you found this review helpful please give it a like!👍

I was in Alabama handling some affairs and i paid $15 dollars for a birth certificate and told them i would be back to pick it up but i totally forgot about it and drove back to Georgia and called them today and asked them if they could mail it to me, instead of me having to drive 70 miles to come get it. They said they couldn't mail it to me.
