Dartford County Court

Piss pour services. Unhelpfull staff. I was waiting for my hearing date for 4 months. Hearing took 5 minutes and desition was made in my favour. But Im still waiting for the letter confirming the outcome despite the fact that the judge promise its going to be send out in few days. When I phone them up after 2 weeks I was told they dont have the time scale and he cant give me any dates. In other words 'we do whatever we wants and we dont give a monkey about you'.

Totally corrupt, incompetent administration with people that lie. I was told my file was sent to a different court, upon verifying this, it turns out to be a lie. Breaucratic processes that absorb peoples time, and Judge's that fail to acknowledge the facts from both parties. The Judiciary need to investigate this court and wash out the corruption. I application has been submitted since 2015, it still has been allocated a hearing date. Yet they can not explain why. Avoid this court, take your case to a fair court like Central London County Court. Also avoid Ilford county court

I want there to fill a statutory declaration in regards to a fine I had and the lady that I dealt was extremely helpful and bent over backwards to ease my situation! I had to buy her chocolates to show my gratitude, what a lifesaver she was!

I only can confirm what other people said about this Court. If I could assess this without any star, I would, more than that I would maybe point 5 stars for cheating.
My experience with this court was very traumatic. I am a nurse, working full time, having professional success and very good references since very many years. I also am a loving, caring, wonderful and loved mother, but after an unsuccessful marriage based on a horrific domestic abuse where my ex husband was the perpetrator, this court decided to take away the child from me, the child’s passport as well after a previous prohibited steps order not to leave the country with my own child. Imagine this: my own boy was from the very beginning blocked to leave with me or to visit his family and ever worse: the child was let to live with even the abuser indeed, the biological father, this having previous medical history of psychofarmaca prescriptions and a pathological unreasonable abusive behavior reported and documented by victim support. The way how this case was judged was absolutely unfair, cheating from all sides. A judge who takes away a child from a wonderful, positive, hard working, caring and loving mum and let him live with a destructive narzistic personality is wrong! People who have no idea about medicine but earn their money through lying and manipulating are dignity less. The case was discussed in several sittings, but even negative and contradictive Social Services reports and Cafcass evaluations where the father was arrested for assaults against the mother and a threat he would kill her by catching her on the through taking the breathing away, even than it was wrongly decided that the father should keep his part of custody. Not even scratches and hematomas on the child’s body done by father were enough proofs to evaluate and to turn the light on that this father is an aggressive personality who not even should be allowed to see the kid. Two Safe guarding raised by the Kent Police and GP against the father were ignored by the final custody decision in this Court. The most important result was that the child should live with father even if this father has a narcistic personality with severe behavior disturbances. This Court decided to document lies about the mum, cheating in this way in order to obtain a positive resolution for the father, de favorizing the mother. More than that, the father tries to use the child to illegally obtain money from the mother and blocks the mother to contact her son. What is this for an emotional abuse and a social disaster?
I am not talking about the techniques used to film secretly the mother and the manipulations done in several occasions against the mother. It would take me several hours to describe this. One think, dear reader, believe me this court is not fair, not correct, and the justice done in here is a terrible manipulation and horrific unacceptable error!

Attended a court hearing, having followed all the requirements. Judge awarded me a possession order against my tenant in 14 days. 13 days later still awaiting a letter to confirm this. Abysmal service. Staff in safe civil service jobs, too many holidays, sick days, training days, no idea what it is to work in a commercial world.

Shocking establishment, 15:20 hours rang them still on hold at 4pm, guess what, now closed, useless.

The phone is never answered....you need to Wait for almost 30 mins to 60 mins before the phone is answered....The staff have been employed there for too long ...need to get them out and replace with young energetic and full of life staff.... absolutely ridiculous and rubbish service....

We have been issued a possession of property form from the court with no dates or important to defendants information. Trying to ring them to get the information and no-one is answering the phone to give me the relevant information.
