Salem District Court — Local services in Salem

For some reason my name gets pulled for Jury Duty ALL the time. Needless to say, I have seen many Courthouses. I normally do not write reviews, but I have never been as impressed as I was today as a member of the Jury Pool. The Trial Court officer that attended to the Jury Pool today was AMAZING! I think his name may have been Colin? I’m so sorry I didn’t get his name, as I was truly blown away by his impeccable demeanor. In an age where far too many people are rude, this officer was kind, courteous and above all professional. He was able to calm many peoples fears and generally made the day fly by. I’m sure I’m a bit happier than those who were actually called to a case, but I would be seriously remiss if I didn’t write up this positive review.

A sincere thank you to the main officer in charge of the Jury Pool in Salem on January 23, 2020...I wish there were more people out there like you! Your professionalism coupled with your calm and positive demeanor, is truly something special nowadays.

In addition, the other officers that came and helped as well were all extremely kind and...

I apologized to the gentleman. He was very agitated humiliated me in front of the other two jurors. I understand he was doing his job but to be humiliated and embarrassed I’m a 65 year-old person. He could’ve handled it much better and spoke to me with respect. . I think he should be taught to have customer service and to be respectful to juris who are coming in to try to do my civic duty, but to go into a courthouse and be humiliated. It leaves a bad...

I have had to deal with this court a few times unfortunately due to a psycho person and pathological liar. That being said this individual is from Salem, Ma and I am from Boston, Ma and the attitudes are different. This whole government system in Salem including this court house are for their own people. They have gone off hearsay and lies with orders. They are not the nicest or friendliest or even helpful of people there. They all including Judges seem to have a stick up their butts. I have never seen a corrupt of a system until I have to deal with the courts or even any government authority of Salem, Ma. It is so sad to see how they operate and how they treat people there. Massachusetts Government needs to a check in on this whole government system and the courts. Salem, Ma shouldn’t be running things the...
