Don't go to the courthouse. It's the WRONG place. Go around the south side there's a small building on the left that says TRAFFIC DIVISION.
Victoria L.

They're going to TRY to give you the run around here. Don't let them. Follow my advice & avoid it. This is specific information about Fix-It tickets. You have to make an appointment first. Call 310-787-3699. Look at the picture I posted of the door sign. There's steps you have to follow. If you have any other TICKETS written in the City of Torrance, or need to appear in court - there are specific steps you must do to navigate & resolve your problem - as of June 24, 2021. If you have other business - call the courthouse number below. This post is about how to deal with Fix-It tickets. Call your local police department to verify they'll sign off on it. I'm not sure if Torrance even does it anymore. It didn't seem like they wanted to do much of anything but cause problems, not solve them. So, I had the police department in my city sign off. Some of the stations don't offer this service anymore. The highway patrol office next to the 110 freeway does, but I think they charge a service fee. Check before you go. Some require that you make an appointment in advance. Then, BEFORE YOU GO to Torrance, call the Traffic Division 310-787-3699. YOU MUST GET AN APPOINTMENT BEFORE YOU GO. Do NOT waste your time standing in the long line at the entrance of the big Courthouse at 825 Maple - because they'll turn you away at the door. That's not the right building. Go around the south side of the courthouse and down a little ways to the cluster of small buildings on the left-hand side....to the 2nd small bungalow that says TRAFFIC DIVISION. You must wear a mask. Don't even enter the building - if you didn't call because they won't help you if you didn't make an appointment. I had to leave and call them. Don't let it happen to you. Just beat them at their own game.... MAKE an APPOINTMENT! Yes, indeed. All of this is meant to be really annoying and ridiculous & make us mad. Take my advice and you'll avoid getting run around with this idiocy. The fine for fix-it tickets is now $25. Cash, Check or Money Order. I don't think they take credit cards. The back of my ticket only gives these 3 payment options. I'm assuming they want to make sure that WE pay the fine, not rack up a credit card and then not pay the bill. The easiest way to do this is to just send it in. Make sure to keep a copy of both sides of the ticket because you have to send the original to: Torrance Courthouse, 825 Maple Ave., Torrance, CA 90503 ATTN: TRAFFIC DIVISION. Make sure to write the citation # in the memo area of the check or money order. I'd also send it certified mail, return receipt. Keep in mind, you can't pay the fees early - you must wait until your citation number has been input into the 'system' and that takes about a month from the date the ticket was written. You can verify that at www.lacourt.org before you send it. But, knowing what I know now - I'd just wait a month & mail it in. That's the best option. Don't volunteer for this one if you can avoid it. Just mail it.....or take a chill pill. The water's deep and c~o~l~d, people. If you have other business at the Torrance Courthouse - CALL THEM BEFORE YOU GO - to find out what the procedures are to handle your situation. They have purposely set it up this way to tangle, cause rage & win. But, now you're already more prepared for this battle going into it. Find out what you need to do BEFORE you go. Take notes. The Torrance Courthouse number is 213-742-8860.

Please bring your mask and wear it.

Also, it was extremely easy to call the courthouse to reschedule my jury duty to a later, and then earlier time.

Basically, this is a brief review for just the building itself!…read more This is the Iowa Courthouse Building. This courthouse was built by Dudley Gray. In September 1977, parts from the old Pottawattomie County Courthouse in Council Bluffs, Iowa were moved here and the building was reborn as the "historic" Iowa Courthouse Building. It cost about 2.5 million to move the parts across country. In 1980, he said, "My colleagues thought I was ding-a-ling." His law firm was on the top floor. For more information, visit this link... http://historylosangeles.blogspot.com/2007/12/iowa-courthouse-in-torrance.html Walking into this building was like stepping back in time. You see the aged looking wallpapered entry with a huge chandelier. The elevator doors are a steel blue and above it is a big golden American Eagle decorative piece. The elevators are antique looking on the inside. They are slow and give you pause, wondering if you'll make it to where you're going... but really, I'm sure they are well-maintained!! The floor we went to had a mix of the old and new-ish. When you step out of the elevator, you are in a mini-lobby where you can enter to another nice large room which is or can be used for meetings. There were 2 of these rooms. There are corridors leading to the office suites. This is a unique set-up and very interesting! It is an office building with various types of businesses. This building has offices for Attorneys, Chiropractors, Psychiatrists, Financial Services, Accountants, etc. I had never been in here and am glad I got to see it briefly!

Staff were not as helpful with guiding to courtrooms so you had to quietly find where you needed to be and once you became a juror, you couldn't talk to anyone anyway. There is no fridge or microwave for jurors to store lunch so you have to eat out everyday, and there was not a cafe to purchase coffee or snacks either so you had to buy your treats before entering. The judge and bailiff of our room was helpful but i can see why people say being in a courthouse is frustrating, I plan to not have to return for a long time.

He called at 1:31 p.m. and again at 2:22 p.m., just trying to provide the tracking information as he was told to. The woman who answered the phone was extremely rude -- she rushed the conversation, wouldn't let him speak, and acted irritated that he called back even though he was just following instructions. We understand that office staff are busy, but that's no excuse for being unprofessional and disrespectful -- especially when people are dealing with important legal matters like family court. We expected a much more courteous and helpful response. Very disappointed. If I could give no stars I would.

She's extremely unprofessional and has a poor work ethic! She is the classic example of a DEI hire! She certainly didn't get this position based on skill, knowledge or merit. She works for the people but certainly doesn't realize that. She couldn't even bring herself out of chambers. Everything was done behind closed doors! Her ruling both times was just pure ignorance. I agree that she does not like white women! She along with the opposing attorney tried to destroy my son but they did not succeed! They under estimated my faith in God and strength as a mother! I prayed over my son as a baby and God has His circle of protection around him. My son refused the see his abusive father! He went on to graduate HS with honors! He served 6 years in the military, earning his bachelors degree in criminal justice. He is now in law school and killing it! He told me that America needs less Veazy's and more Christian lawyers! He's absolutely right! I'm so incredibly proud of him.

PS Look at her photos and have a good laugh, the Black Robe is perfect on her.
