    So I told the sheriff over the phone that I'll call back and reconfirm if a civil standby is necessary or not.

    I usually try my best to avoid the DMV, and this experience reminded me why…read more My dad recently tried to go in on his own, and unfortunately had a really frustrating experience right from the start. The front desk employee--who has been there for years--was very rude and dismissive. I understand that staff deal with a lot of people who may not have the right paperwork or may not be tech-savvy, but that doesn't excuse the lack of patience or basic courtesy. My dad was told he needed to scan a QR code outside to check in. He tried to explain that he didn't know how to do that, but instead of helping, he was told to "just use your camera and scan it." He ended up taking a photo of the code and was understandably confused. Even the security guard wasn't much help. Frustrated, he left without getting anything done. Luckily, I was on spring break and able to go back with him. When we arrived, he immediately recognized the same front desk employee. We managed to check in properly and waited about an hour. While sitting there, I couldn't help but notice how she spoke to other confused customers--it was honestly hard to watch. I get that the job can be repetitive and frustrating, but many people coming in genuinely need help, especially older individuals. That said, I want to highlight someone who completely turned the experience around: Armaan. Armaan was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful. He took the time to clearly explain everything my dad needed to do, made sure we had all the correct paperwork, and even double-checked with a coworker to ensure everything was done right. His professionalism and attitude made a huge difference. This was the first genuinely positive experience I've ever had at the DMV. If it weren't for Armaan, we likely would have had to come back--and I honestly don't know how that would have gone. 5 stars for Armaan--he deserves recognition for going above and beyond.

    Went in to get the RealID on my license. There was a name spelling error, and I wanted to correct…read moreit at the same time. The name was changed but it had a typing error. I didn't catch until I got home. Went back the next to have it corrected. The paper copy was correct. Few days later I received TWO new licenses with the WRONG spelling again. I GIVE UP!!

    I am not sure if this is the best place, as I couldn't find the actual probation office in Yelp,…read morebut this is who this review is meant for, specifically Mrs. Martinez i have been on probation most of my life, and it has always seemed as though it's just there to get you caught up again and again, instead of trying to understand the individual and why they (in my case) keep getting into trouble . Mrs. Martinez is different; she actually cares about what is going on in your life that has led you to her and really pulls out all the stops and options to help you be successful not only in completing your probation successfully but also in your life inso making it possible to stay off of probation in the future. She has gotten me into counseling (something I never thought was even an option or that I needed or would be helpful , but it was, for understanding why I make some of these bad choices, understanding what triggers me and how to deal with those triggers ) instead of a rehab treatment I didn't need and would have gotten me let go of my current job, due to all the required check ins and meetings i would need to attend . she also helped me to get back on my feet with temoarary houseing until together we found affordable perminate houseing keeping my family the entire time. All probation officers dealing with troubled individuals should have this approach instead of setting you up to fail to keep you in the system and money flowing through the jails. If all probation iofficers handeled certin cases like this I truly belive crime would be down and we lives could be saved.

    The clerks in Family Law here are great. Very efficient and helpful in every encounter. If only all…read moregovernment offices were run this well!
