Commendations and Complaints

The Sheriff’s Office strives to provide outstanding service to both the citizens of Stafford County, and to those who pass through our county either occasionally or on a daily basis.  Most of what we do is considered “routine” or “part of the job.”  We expect little recognition for our efforts.

There are, however, times when a deputy or employee performs their duties in a manner so appreciated by the citizen that they would like to say “thank you” or “job well done.”  Many times the citizen doesn’t know to whom they should speak, or where they should write to express their sentiments of appreciation.  It’s for this reason we have created a mechanism to provide a way you can tell us what you think!

Of course, no one likes to hear that things are not going well or that the service provided is not satisfactory!  We do understand, however, that there are times when not everyone will be happy with the service or outcome of our work.  It’s also necessary that this office be made aware of the incidents where you feel we did not perform our duties properly and adequately.

If you have a commendation or complaint regarding any aspect of our performance we would like to hear about it!
