    I suppose your experience here is dependent on what side of the law you're visiting for. I found the parking super easy, the building well maintained and all of the staff professional.

    After putting you on hold for 30 min they hang up on you every time.

    I've been assign jury duty only twice at the Van Nuys Courthouse the first was relatively smooth…read moreand easy. The second was a little long and chaotic, but we were still dismisses before the mid afternoon set in. There's a few vendors in the courtyard which I miss walking through the courtyard regularly when I live just up the street from here. So pretty okay restaurants in the area as well especially along Van Nuys Blvd and a few tucked away along Victory. Superior is very close to the Metro G Line (Orange) station for Van Nuys which makes avoiding paid parking either via meter or garage easier - you may even luck into residential street parking (watching those cleaning day restrictions). The garage for parking closes at 7PM and the courthouse itself closes at 4:30 pm everyday. I thought I might get lucky and be assigned here when I got my recent notice but rather than be a mile or two away from a major courthouse for Jury Duty - I'll be 15 miles across town... Until we meet again SCC. Q Tip: Good online services - especially for/case access of all types as well as traffic ticket lookup, options, request, payments, and so on.

    I had to make a small claim and wanted the sheriffs to serve the papers. First time the sheriff…read moredepartment sent it back because there was a box missing so I had to take a day off work refill the paperwork, change the court date and fill out more paperwork for the sheriff to serve. I get a letter back saying they couldn't serve them because the court date was less than 15 days from the date!?!? I had made a new court date almost two months ahead. They had time to process and serve. I had to take another day off of work to figure this out and again... more paperwork. Either someone in the sheriffs department is doing some dirty work or what. This courthouse is a mess. You get no justice. They just take people's money and do a poor job.

    The newer/renovated building among the masses…read more The LA Superior Van Nuys Courthouse - West - near city hall, Van Nuys Police Station, Van Nuys Public Library and local city of Van Nuys staples as well as services is one you're most likely to visit, pass by or find yourself at for jury duty. There's lots of places to go for a stroll, bike ride, pokemon Go or take in some of the small scenery inside or around the main courtyard. Food, vendors, vending machines (inside) and local spots close by within walking distances (mainly along Van Nuys Blvd). One of my favorite local things is a multiple all direction pedestrian crossing intersection (including diagonal) at Sylvan Street & Sylmar Avenue. You can find parking structures along Delano Street, not to mentioned metered parking for quicker ins and outs (parking tickets, city services, etc) around all four sides/streets that encompass LASC Van Nuys West and its neighboring buildings.

    The van Nuys Court House is a decent place to go if you need to go to the library or take your kids…read morefor a 30 minute bike ride. PROS: ll There is a lot of trees and a few benches. ll. The public library is in the same court yard. ll. There are a few restaurants located on Van Nuys Blvd. CONS: ll. You might encounter people with mental health issues wandering around. ll. It can be difficult to find parking. TIPS: ll. Dont go during the night, because there are homeless people with mental health issues wandering around sometimes. ll. If you don't want to pay for parking you can park on the side streets. Example: Calvert street, Delano street, Erwin street etc.

    Well, this week's TO DO is DONE :))) I received a "camera"…read moreticket early February, and "gloominated" over it for several months. I wanted to fight it, but I guess every picture tells a story, don't it??? So, after googling best times to go here, I threw all caution to the wind and drove over to Santa Monica. I parked a good half mile away to get my steps in and got into the courthouse around 10:15 AM anyway after going through a safety check I was told to walk down the hall and I could go pay it. There was nobody on line and the lovely fellow behind the counter couldn't have been kinder and easier going. Boom done! I cannot believe how Angelenos drive these days... rolling stops ( they don't) and breaking so many laws and regulations including speeding, cutting one another off, left turns from right side of the road... oh I could go on and on... However, I chose to pay and go to Traffic School so I don't get any points on my license. My tip is: don't go first thing in the morning to pay a ticket...wait until after 10a or go early afternoon. There's plenty of parking on the street. The walk will do everybody good if you park a little further away and get your steps in IMHO!!! ;))) I am glad I went for sure! And the experience was great! PS Mondays and Fridays are always more busy vs mid-week!!!

    Julio. Let's start with him.... There's an Officer named Julio. I suspect he's in Upper-Level…read moreManagement? I observed Julio interact with a dozen+ Courthouse staff and fellow Officers for well-over 30 minutes. His demeanor was so warm, encouraging, playful, sincere, engaging and supportive, I couldn't help but go up to him and share my thoughts of his powerfully positive energy. We had a wonderful conversation for 5 minutes. I walked away from our talk with a grin from ear-to-ear. This guy IS the REAL DEAL - The CONSUMMATE Professional. Michael. Let's now talk about him... There's a Customer Service gent named Michael who works the Traffic Ticket Window. I visited this Office/Window several weeks prior to my (traffic) Court Date. My experience was great. Michael was patient with me and answered all my silly questions. He provided me with pertinent feedback and made some very helpful suggestions. He was thoughtful, patient and fun to talk to. Nice work Michael! Then there was "The Judge". I wish I had her name. She was a stand-in, covering the regular Judge on Tuesday, 12/30. This lady was witty, fun, high-energy, grounded and just down-right sweet. Although she didn't have a Southern drawl, she certainly had the hospitality of a Woman of the South. I Highly Recommend NOT getting a ticket, but if you have to appear in Court.... ...I would HIGHLY Recommend the Santa Monica Courthouse :) Keep up the fantastic work, ya'll Sincerely,

If you…read moreare here for small claims like I was it's on the 3rd floor, but the elevator stops at 2nd floor don't be confused this is normal you have to get off the 2nd floor to go through security check point then continue up there are security guards there to guide you they are nice. I highly recommend making an appointment ahead of time and be sure to bring extra copies of your documentation and if you are suing a business you need to know what their agent is mine was LLC, so that's very important to research before you file. I paid about $80 in cash to file and they gave me a hearing court date. You then go back all the way down the elevator again where you saw the security check point go outside and the sheriffs to serve the paperwork on the same day and they are located just around the corner on the left side. Please be respectful to their sheriffs and note that the they have their lunch break hours from around noon to 1pm and it might be closed. Having the sheriffs serve the paper is $50. The parking is very easy it's on the right side of the building they are a part of the building structure. I gladly paid $10 for the parking with cash. Staff was very helpful. If you don't live in Beverly Hills you can do the court hearing remotely and choose to submit all your documentations online. This is not a situation you want to be in but gets the job done fast. Sorry for not much photos but photography is not allowed inside.

    On several visits I encountered only politeness and helpful attitudes. Parking was easy. Security…read moremade me feel welcome.
