Join a live question and answer session about accessing public records. An experienced Public Records Act attorney will be available to answer questions about how to request records from California public agencies, how the process works, the types of records subject to disclosure, and your options if the agency refuses or fails to respond. For maximum benefit, be sure to attend the class immediately preceding this Q&A session.

Please note this Q&A will focus on state agencies governed by the California Public Records Act. Federal agencies are generally governed by the federal Freedom of Information Act.
