At the Spokane Valley meet up we had today someone mentioned that some people are having issues getting information act requests satisfied. In my job I have to work with a lot of states and different departments to get FOIA or state information act requests filled. I've become pretty good at legally getting around someone who is trying to stonewall the request. If anyone is having problems getting information I'd be glad to help out in trying to get the situation resolved.

You do this for a fee or out of the goodness of your heart?

We have had issues here in Bellingham. Even though our state ruled against the city in Yacobellis vs. City of Bellingham.

How about starting a thread with some samples, tips and tricks listed so everyone around the country can benefit from it? It's a common issue. And maybe put a comment in your signature.
