Montgomery County is no longer a small county so the historic courthouse is something more out of…read morethe smaller counties around the state (as Monty used to be) rather than the lumbering giant of now-more-than-just-a-bedroom-community to our immediate north that has wooed big munny Exxxon and other megacorps to headquarter their ops here in this county. Even though the official address is on N. Main you actually can't enter on that side, it's an exit only. Better signage might help out the situation guiding people around to the other side where you actually can enter. It's a historic courthouse so that will tell you about the general milieu. There are steps to get in so if you are with a guest that is in a stroller or wheelchair you need to pick up them and their accompanying apparatus step by step. Last time I was in court here the family in front of me was figuring out a stroller for a wee baby Seamus and a wheelchair for an elderly person possibly named Mallory given the extensive amount of profanity I heard. They looked entirely frustrated with the steps only situation. The lobby inside is tiny since it wasn't designed the way the more modern courthouses were where you could just stand out chatting on your celly with ya girlfriend and snapchatting or whatever else the children are doing these days with their iPhone 99+s. There is enough room to get through security and to get out of the way. If you are meeting someone here you should probably meet them outside the building if they don't know where they are going, or meet them at the front door to your specific court once you get upstairs. The courts (at least two, possibly more) got shuffled since the last time I was here. The specific one I was in was moved around the building but the signs were still in place ALL over the place pointing me to the old location. So I was a bit surprised to find the old signs were wrong and FILTHY LIARS. That was not the court I was supposed to be in. Update yo signage, girlfriend. There is free parking nearby so while it's more than an hour in your automocar from downtown Houston and you are burning up gas and your patience slowly inching north on 45 at least you don't need to take out a third mortgage to pay for daily parking unlike what my life is like on days in Harris County.

I was up against a super crook who tried every possible way to avoid detection to be served. I was up against the court deadline and Kathryn's intelligence and perseverance overcame the barrier and helped serve the crook. Before I hired Express Civil Process, I paid constables office to serve the crook. Oh my God! They turned out to be total incompetent worse than a Fifth grader. They couldn't follow simple instructions causing me money and lost time. Kathryn coached and guided me on how to handle this dire situation - Free of Charge. Way to go Kathryn! So far Express Civil Process pricing is the best in Houston. I was so happy with how Kathryn handled the tuff situation; I paid her extra just to show my gratitude. I wish her just the best and God Bless Her!

Well, I was doing my hubby a favor on Friday by getting his license tags renewed and changing the address but I forgot to get him new plates. Oops. So I went back on Monday, the nice lady said I needed to wait 2 business days before and changes could be made. (Ok...see you Wednesday) On Wednesday another very nice lady at the tax assessors office helped me get new plates and I was in and out all 3 times in less than 3-4 minutes. Now that's how you do it!

Thankfully, that's not what I was here for and there was no line for the County Clerk's office for renewal of Assumed Names/business names/marriage licenses. I had some hiccups with their signature machine that added an extra ~15 minutes because they had to restart with another clerk/computer, but otherwise the process went smoothly. I was out by 8:30 and I'm sure I could've been in and out in 15 minutes. They do not take tap or Apple Pay so keep that in mind. Also, cards must be in your name or have someone there whose name matches the card.

Except if you've got custom tags. Yes, they'll give you your new registration sticker, but you won't be getting your new plates. Those have to be mailed to you. After waiting in a [cough] ungodly-long line for about 20 minutes, an employee was walking through the line to check everyone's paperwork. When I told her what I was there for, she informed me that after an over 2-hour wait, I'd get my registration sticker today, but not my required new plates. TIP: She told me to go home and renew my registration online (www.texas.gov). That way I'd get both my new plates and registration sticker AND I'd save myself a whole lot of time. Walked out, drove home and renewed online in about 5 minutes. I then had the rest of my afternoon to enjoy myself!

I had all my paper work and upon speaking to someone they informed me that I can go online to make an appointment which is cool. Yet, they don't tell you that it's all booked for like 2 months out at EVERY LOCATION (ridicules). I went back to the lady and said as much and she verbally says "oh, well you can be a walk-in on Mon., Tues., Thurs., & Friday between 8am to 12:30pm but it's best to arrive right at 8am". LIKE WHY NOT SAY THAT! instead these people who are turning people away and not informing them of their walk-in policy so that they can get their transfers done. WHO has 2 months to wait when the state requires a 30 day change????? Make that make sense! Title transfers are not an option to do online or by mail, it HAS to be done in person. SMH, if I would not have asked these people would not have told me about this; AND how YOU GONNA HAVE AN ATTITUDE BECAUSE I ASK A QUESTIONS??? it's your job to inform the people coming/going regarding all things related to this office. Some people just give shitty service (not all) but like how are we suppose to know the walk-in rule if you are not telling anyone?
