They are efficient so even if there's a line it goes fairly quickly. Bring cash or a checkbook to pay the fees. They accept credit card but charge for the convenience. Parking is iffy with some metered spots on the street or potentially more in the surrounding neighborhoods. For the meters, you can use credit card or even pay using app which makes it convenient in case you need more time and don't want to trek back to your car to feed the meter.

I didn't book an appointment and showed up at 12:15pm. But after waiting outside in line for 45 min they had my business taken care of in 5 minutes ! Amazing!

I showed up thinking they'd be open at 8 only to find out they opened up at 8:30. Why? I'm not sure. Be advised there's a good chance there's going to be someone out there asking if you are there for anything related to registering a business. He's very friendly, but he's not with the county. He's there to hawk his company that will help you with anything legal in regards to your business. I came in to get my son's birth certificate. The young woman who helped me out was once of the nicest government employees I've ever dealt with. I was dreading getting the form thinking it would be like going to the DMV, but once they opened, the line really moved along. And like I said, the service I had was A+. If I ever need any other forms, this will definitely be the location I go to. I'll just be sure to get there knowing they'll open at 8:30. Not 8.

I had a really positive experience today and felt like it was important to share…read more I've been dealing with a complicated and honestly frustrating situation with my account for a while now, and it's been difficult trying to get clear answers. As a young woman navigating all of this, I've unfortunately been given misinformation in the past, which has made me come into conversations a bit more guarded and, at times, probably more frustrated than I'd like to be. That being said, Will at the front was incredibly helpful right away. He took the time to listen, understood that my case was more involved, and brought in Michael, the manager, to assist. I genuinely cannot say enough good things about Michael. He was patient, professional, and incredibly respectful throughout the entire interaction. Even though I came in with a lot of questions and concerns, he never made me feel dismissed or rushed. He took the time to look at my case as a whole -- not just pieces of it -- and made sure I fully understood everything before we ended our conversation. Money-related situations can be really sensitive and stressful, and I know I may have come across frustrated at times, but Michael handled everything with such grace and professionalism. I left the conversation feeling heard, respected, and honestly just very grateful. It's rare to feel taken care of in situations like this, and both Will and Michael made a huge difference for me today. Thank you both again -- I truly appreciate it. - Margo Parker

It really puts things in a different perspective when you learn more about what the police are faced with everyday out there and gives you a genuine appreciation for them not just as officers but as people like you and me, with families who worry if they are coming home everyday they work. It's an intense career choice.

Within an hour my wife, who doesn't even speak English was able to find all the socials for the criminal which we turned into the police. I kept calling "Detective" Velazquez but her response was always I haven't gotten around to it. The next time I called back she was happy to inform me that she RETURNED the purse to the driver. To which I reiterated that the driver was the one who tried to kill me. She said she would "look into it." 6 months later I received a letter saying the case was closed because they had no leads. Incompetent and lazy. People don't trust and dislike police because of cops like these.

Very true to LA City fashion. There were meters and I only saw one garage that stated it was only open for monthly entrances. There was also parking lots charging around but I decided to just park in a meter. Make sure to bring coins! Once inside the staff was very kind in directing me the correct way to go for what I needed. They need proof of vaccination and ID and you must wear a mask. They also have masks available if you forget your own which is nice. I was helped by the front desk and the plan checker. We were able to discuss the plans and I was grateful they were understanding and patient. A good experience for my first time: Will probably be retuning here compared to other locations due to the closeness of the location and I liked the staff !
