They were always kind, friendly and courteous. However, that changed this year when I started having to deal with them on a more serious matter. My experience with them was just as it had been when I saw them as the county events. A pleasant one which was nice considering that I had to deal with them for not so pleasant matters. Also, as with the Carol Stream PD, the Dupage Sheriff's Office was helpful and expressed their concern for my well-being while staying professional and focused on the matter at hand. It's nice to know I live in a county with such good law enforcement team.

She helped me solve all of the issues and misinformation I was previously given and I was squared away and ready to go within a few hours. She even printed some documents for free for my troubles. Please hire more people like her. Everyone that comes to the courthouse has varying reasons for being there but all should be treated with decency and respect. A little kindness goes a long way.

God forbid anyone go 10 mph over in on a three lane highway or industrial back road, yet they use this intimidation? Disgusting thugs! We will be moving out of this township soon and you will not be getting any more of our tax money. You ignore school zones and residences to capitalize on your shady tactics.

Well, I hope that if you find yourself here, it's to VIEW proceedings or a trial (versus actually…read moretaking part) or using their legal library. With that said, here are a few tips: You cannot bring ANY food or beverages in, including water. Apparently the thought is that, instead of water, you might have a liquid accelerant in that thar bottle. If you DO bring your water bottle in, you'll either have to empty it in the plants outside of the front doors, or walk back to your car, since McHenry County's Finest at the front won't let you throw it away inside of their garbage cans. (I wonder if there are vending machines somewhere inside, though, because I've seen counsel with food and beverage items..or, maybe the rules are bent for them?) If you're taking part in a divorce hearing, good luck: the judges are known to be snarly. The one my family went in front of actually got pretty theatrical and showed huge favoritism towards a drawn-out trial involving an attorney (versus following through with a scheduled trial that we were prepared for). If you try to do something yourself and end up, say, at the State's Attorney's Office, you probably won't get very far. We actually got quite the run-around from them, so now my family's attorney has to send a letter to get the State's Attorney to act (re: having someone prosecuted for filing false charges with the court). The Police Department wasn't much better at first (the female officer at the front desk was also very snarly...sensing a theme here?), but things improved when we were able to talk to a more head-officer and he took his time out to listen to our issue and explain procedures to us since we were misinformed by others. Some of McHenry County's Finest WERE friendly in directing us to where we needed to go, and did so with a smile. And one carried on a conversation with my brother (who was wearing his military dress uniform). Maybe it's because we were wearing more than our weekend sweats, didn't look shady, my brother's in the service, and we had our 90 year old great aunt in tow? If you're bored and have nothing else to do, though, I gotta say: this is the best free entertainment/people-watching EVER.
