Your deputy yesterday thought itd be cool to pull me over after i just bought a truck and figured i should have plates and insurance as soin as it hits the road so if you guys could figure out how to make the secretary of state mobile and more convinent for your officers and community and make sure they and the insurance are open 24/7 so you can switch insurance at 8pm since your officers cant get the fact around there head when you say the veicle was just bought. You think hed be more worried about the seat belt that was cut i pointed out but by golly i didnt have a license plate on a truck i bout 10 mins ago (as we sat there in the middle of town i watched 3 other veicles with out plates go by). Thanks for the great night and first time in rosscomon the harassmeant was greatly appreciated. 😡😤

I was so impressed with the courtesy and professionalism of the fine people who work at this court. I have worked all over the State, primarily representing clients in complex custody issues. Sometimes it can be a lonely role, being perceived as the "outsider." I was pleasantly surprised upon arriving at Roscommon Circuit Court, however. While protecting the rights of their citizens and honoring the rule of law, the staff here also has the capacity to be helpful to those who are new, and may not know the specific procedures of this particular court. They truly understand the impartial administration of Justice.

The lady with the long black hair that sits in the middle was giving me dirty looks and staring at me and making me feel uncomfortable. I had to say something about it. Someone in that office loves to share personal info also, can't wait to hear the rumors now! Also, they can't help people with learning disabilities? Since when?

It's the government so reviews don't really matter but avoid using the county clerk notary at all costs. Go to the bank or somewhere else if you can. They are clueless.
