We are a team of dedicated researchers, legal information specialists, and local government enthusiasts who understand how confusing and time-consuming it can be to locate the right public records. Our team has spent years studying the landscape of California public records law, Calaveras County government agencies, and the various databases and repositories that hold vital information about property, court proceedings, vital statistics, and more.

We are not a government agency.

Why Public Records Matter

Public records are the cornerstone of government transparency and civic accountability. Under the California Public Records Act (CPRA), most records created or maintained by state and local government agencies are available to the public upon request. These records empower citizens to:

Make informed decisions about real estate purchases
Research family history and genealogy
Conduct background research for personal or professional purposes
Hold government agencies and officials accountable
Support legal, financial, and journalistic investigations

Understanding your rights under California law — and knowing exactly where and how to submit a records request — can save you significant time and frustration. That is precisely why CalaverasRecords.us exists.

Our Commitment to Accuracy

We take the accuracy and reliability of our content seriously. Our team regularly reviews and updates the information on this site to reflect changes in county office procedures, contact information, fees, and applicable laws. However, because public records policies and procedures can change, we always encourage users to verify information directly with the relevant Calaveras County agency before taking action.

A Note on Privacy

While public records are, by definition, available to the public, we recognize that the use of such information carries an ethical responsibility. CalaverasRecords.us encourages all users to access and use public records lawfully and responsibly. We do not support or condone the use of public records for harassment, stalking, discrimination, or any other unlawful purpose.
