The Page County Courthouse is a beautiful structure filled with wonderful staff. The last time I was there for help with my Father's passing. I was really touched by the help I received.

The clerks office is comprised of some of the rudest people I have ever talked to. I have no idea why or how these people are in customer service. You can't file a complaint about them because the people that take those complaints will just stop listening. They have 1 good employee out of the bunch and she's a very busy person in court. This is a prime example why women take so long to get out of abusive relationships or just stay in them. If you go there about a restraining order you can expect to be treated like trash and experience things such as eye rolling, inaccurate info, resistance of any type of help especially from the male employee and the lady that shadows him. Try to get lucky and go when the head lady is in.

Just visiting for the architecture. Very beautiful old building.

You guys need to specify when you stop doing DMV services. The hours show 4:30 but stop licensing and title services at 4:15? That should be on the hours of operation. That makes it VERY inconvenient for people who think you guys go until 4:30pm.
