My ex and I were forced to sit through several other cases before us. The one right before ours was not very pretty. Judge Sauceda handled it well. Such wretched lawyers she had to deal with! The court system for Los Angeles is honestly a bit chaotic at first, but it is mainly because of the populous county. I had more questions after speaking with the judge so I called the hotline since my ex and I are representing ourselves... the guy I finally reached was friendly, but said an attorney would reach out to me no later than 3:30 pm. It is now 7:50 pm. I'm not hopeful for a callback tomorrow either. Parking was free but usually quite a long walk to the courthouse. Not a fan of the clerk's office at all here. I went there several times to file papers within the past five years and they were so rude to me and all other patrons around me each time. Despicable me, despicable me.

When I got off the phone in tears, I found the ID.gov did not have what she was asking. I have to call back tomorrow! Stupidity! I wish I could go back to work at the federal level I have worked. Old ones are cranky and the young ones are rude.

Five-Star Review for Social Security Administration…read more I've had nothing but excellent experiences with Social Security. Anytime I have questions or concerns, they are addressed promptly and professionally. The staff--whether on the phone, through the 1-800 number, or in-office--are always kind, understanding, and patient. The process is straightforward, and the website is easy to navigate. Even when speaking with an attorney or judge through Social Security-related matters, I felt heard and respected. That's a rare feeling with government agencies, and it deserves recognition. A special shout-out to the Norwalk office--they go above and beyond. Overall, Social Security provides truly outstanding service. Five stars, two thumbs up, and a big round of applause!

Mrs. Aguilar was very helpful, kind and graceful . She answered all my questions, so I did not need to make an appointment I understood employees there get very busy and many people to guide and help. It only takes that one to go above and beyond!!!!!

It was fairly easy and quick and I was given a receipt and I was on my merry way. The front lobby was clean and open and people were professional. I'd come again to do the Live scan again if needed. Currently they are looking for police officers to fill positions so if you want to move laterally they'll pay you $20k bonus to do it.

I visited this police station seeking assistance with a report request, and unfortunately the…read morecustomer service I received was disappointing. Yvonne Llamas was unhelpful and appeared unwilling to assist me from the beginning. Because I needed assistance in Spanish, another employee was initially asked to help, but when Ms. Llamas became involved again, the interaction continued to feel unprofessional and discourteous. I understand that public service employees can be busy and deal with many requests throughout the day, but members of the public deserve to be treated with respect and professionalism. A more courteous attitude and a willingness to help would have made a significant difference. I hope management reviews this feedback and continues to emphasize the importance of providing professional, respectful service to everyone who comes in seeking assistance

Wow! I can not believe how low the rating is and bad reviews, for a city that is all I've known…read moreall my life. I grew up here, my kids grew up here, seen lots of changes since 1975 (yup!). I can understand the complaint about the incompetence of city employees; I've had mine with the Police Department & also with Whittier High School & WHUSD (side note w/both school & school district, I'm talking a few certain employees, the rest of employees were fine, it takes a few bad apples, as they say), that is much needed area of improvement, but I don't take it out on the entire city. And the city is most certainly not desolate! Try going to San Bernardino and you will change your tune. Yes, there has been ongoing rise of crime, tagging/graffiti, lots of outsiders from all other cities moving here- both good & unfortunately bad (West & So. Whittier and unfortunately pockets of Uptown as well) moving into the area, apparently it's appealing to them as well. There are times I go to Uptown for dinner, drinks or to chill, it seems like you have to be there in the day time till early evening before the mob of socialites & attitudes come out at night and saturate it. But again, it's not that bad, just know when to go, know where to go and know when to leave, if your the younger generation, then I guess you guys know how to handle it, focus is elsewhere anyways right? But what does the city have to do with it? If we can all look up above it and take it for what it is and make the best out of it, then it's all good. I probably won't buy a home out here, unless I won the Lottery and was in a position to pick and choose (I choose Whittier Hills, Friendly Hills & the best of East Whittier only), but mostly likely looking to get as far away from the city and live on an open field of homes with a view of the mountains in the quiet sleepy town of Yucaipa, what some will call boring, I call it peaceful. But when I get homesick, I know I can come back to good old Whittier. The point is, if your new to the area, have an open mind and give Whittier a chance.

If your a foodie your gonna love this city because we have it all and who makes the best of a certain type of food is up for debate! The city is pretty safe compared to neighboring cities and yes Whittier has pockets were gangs and low life's thrive but Whittier PD is pretty aggressive keeping the city safe. As for the average citizen we have old folks from the old Nixon days and the new generation of people trying to live in a modest home and give their kids a good life! If I could suggest any change i'd say the city needs to do something about the homeless in uptown and the gang activity in the surrounding area! Also limit the number of apartment complexes and section 8 because we already have a large share of renters! This city has a lot to offer on the weekends if you check the city website. It's far from a boring sleepy town, It's a thriving town with wonderful people living in it!

The trees and they even have a waterfall which is usually only on the weekends. The park is kind of hidden is up the hill and the parking is on top so to go into the park you have to go down some steps. Which makes it hidden. They have a kids area to play which is right next to the bathroom so make sure you take care of your kids well. They have more than enough tables where you can have events or bbq. Today we came for a friends baby shower which was in the corner and there was two other event happening at the tables and there was more room for others to sit down. Everyone that comes here is very well mannered and respectful so there's never been any issues here. Great park for events, photo shoots, or even just bringing your kids to have fun. Will definitely plan my next event here next summer!
