  • Lake County Courthouse, 550 W. Main St., North Wing – Third Floor, Tavares
  • North Lake Branch Office, 902 Avenida Central, The Villages
  • South Lake Branch Office, 290 Citrus Tower Blvd., Suite 116, Clermont

Appointments are available from 8:30 a.m. to 3:45 p.m., Monday through Friday, and can be made online. Veterans can also schedule an appointment by calling (352) 253-2648.
