Need help with probate in Georgia?
Waited for 3 hours to see the judge/speak to the solicitor!! The solicitor was beyond rude, and kept insenuating that I needed to ask for an extension to pay the fine bc I said it was excessive! He then told me well it’s even higher South of Macon!! He was also on his cell phone, and just pushed papers in front of me without saying a word until I asked what it was. Then you can only pay with cash or money order! Fines are definitely outrageous, and their LENGTHY court hearing processes definitely need to be improved!
Every time I call, the ladies at the front each tell me different policies and information… it’s frustrating that they are not all on the same page about their protocol because it makes it impossible to get things done. This is unprofessional and makes it difficult to resolve my legal matters. I was calling for a license reinstatement form for the dds and each time I got a different operator in which the answer and steps to resolve were different. Terrible
A pretty historic building where they collect stupid amounts of money from good people for petty violations. Being here reminds me of the movie “nothing but trouble”. You have the right to plead guilty, nolo contendere or be convicted if you fight it. I paid $715 (which was conveniently the exact amount of my bail) for driving on a “suspended” out of state license that I no longer lived in. Better to fly over this gauntlet stretch if I-75 with over zealous cops.
This court does NOT allow cell phones in the building if your going into court. Some courts you can bring your phone in with you but no use in the courtroom. This court will send you back to put your phone in your car. Good to know before you arrive since many people are dependent on electronic documents.
I found the staff to be very friendly and very helpful , because things don't always go our way, its not the staffs fault.
