Customer Testimonials

(King County Staffers) B. and N. provided me with superior service and I got everything I needed right away! Thanks for hiring such great people!!

- David G. at Dept. of Development and Environmental Services, Service: Residential permit

King County Staffer A. in the Recorder's Office went over and beyond providing excellent customer service during my visit to get property information I was seeking for a senior citizen friend. She was very helpful. (She) was very patient explaining everything to me [that] I needed to relay to my friend about her property. Thank you, A.!!

- Anonymous, Service: Copies of Warrant

This employee was very helpful and courteous. I put off getting replaced birth certificates because I thought it would be a hassle. But it took me about 2 minutes and I got them in less than a week! Love the service! Today customer service like that is hard to find. Thanks a million.

- Luann P., Service: New birth certificates
