Before you book, keep in mind that the Kern County Law Library does not assist with Guardianships, Family Law, Small Claims or Landlord-Tenant Issues. If you want to research these subjects in the library, totally independently, feel free to reserve an appointment slot.
If you want assistance with Family Law, contact the Family Law Facilitator at (661) 610-6400 or wmfacil@kern.courts.ca.gov
If you want assistance with Small Claims or Guardianships, contact the Self-Help Center at (661) 610-6518 or wmselfhelp@kern.courts.ca.gov.
If you have questions about landlord-tenant issues, dial (661) 610-6299, or email ltac@kern.courts.ca.gov. You may also visit them in the Kern County Law Library during their walk-in hours from 8:00am-2:00pm Monday through Thursday, and 8:00am-12:00pm on Fridays.
