Yancey County Courthouse

I have never had an issue with the Courthouse or anyone that works in the courthourt. I'm always assisted quickly and with full resolution. I don't understand the negative reviews.

Great home-town atmosphere with genuine friendly service and staff!

Fast and friendly service, you get more than you expect from the staff

Buena atención y muy amable el personal es fantástico:)

I'm rating this courthouse for it's architecture.

If you really need help with anything they will help you

why do people leave reviews on courthouses if you're there you either have a ticket been in trouble plus what do you think people won't visit if you leave a review lol.

yancey county courthouse is full of a bunch of corrupt tyrants.
they refused a public records request because (im not a lawyer)
I had to explain to them it was a legal request and went one step further siting the laws that allow us as citizens to be able to gain access to public records and then they finally allowed it with attitude. They act as if the laws governing the entire state and or the United States constitution doesnt apply to there county.
The da told me that theres no such thing as conflict of interest in a custody court case...... which has proven false.
The judges are very one sided and if your family is very known in the community will only side with them. The famous words from the magistrates office and the sheriff dept (are hands are tied) if you want help we cant help you talk to your legislator.
so i had a conversation with the legislator in which he stated the magistrate shouldve done something. I will make sure to email him everything corrupt this county has done to me and i would like all who read this who has similar situations to get ahold of the legislator. change needs to be made in this county. as far as the sheriffs department goes the lady answering the phone is definitely the only 5 star that entire county gets she's very respectful and polite. The deputy's however really need to be refreshed on the law. I have a video of them telling me that driving without a license in the state of north Carolina is not a big deal (in those exact words). it should be put on the news which i might have done. an unlicensed driver drove up to my house and i had stated they were unlicensed, and the sheriffs flipped on me over it they need some training on de-escalation. since that person didn't have a driver's license and they knew they were on video they went to every single one of my neighbors doors until they could get someone to drive for them harassing all my neighbors in the process. They act as if they make there own rules and if you explain to them the law states any differently, they will get in your face and escalate a situation. This all caught on video. To sum this all up the entire court house is very corrupt and change is needed. 1 star is better than the truth which is the entire county would be better off without the tyranny of yancey county court house.

Some employees are rude! You always run a risk of getting yelled at or being helped.

The true meaning of political good ol boy system and nothing to do with the true meaning of being a officer which is to protect and serve and as a daughter of an officer it makes me sick to see the injustices that not only my family has endured but all the other people

Sheriffs office is the biggest joke I've ever witness All officers are untrained and have no clue how to investigate the mageristra is no better they don't even know the law and this whole law enforcement should be investigated for the covered up cases they do.

No one here has any idea of what they are doing. If you talk and submit paperwork to one person, they are liable to loose it right on their desk and blame it on you. The only thing this court cares about is your money.

Good luck getting anyone to pick up a phone. I guess it's hard to pick up a phone or return a call in 18 hrs.

Horribly rude when I called the clerk of court with an issue. Seriously hope to never deal with or have to call again she was so offensive!
