ABC ONLINE COMPLAINT FORM

Take control in your community.

This form makes it simple for community members to submit complaints about alcohol licensees directly to the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). These complaints help mobilize ABC to investigate any criminal behavior, damage, threats, or other impact to your quality of life associated with any businesses with an alcohol license.

You are not required to identify yourself, but please provide as much information as you can. The more specific the information, the better ABC can investigate the location.

We do not accept pictures or videos as part of a complaint. NEVER attempt to document or follow individuals.

USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION: Unless compelled by law, Alcohol Justice will not share personal contact information submitted through this form with anyone outside ABC. You will not be added to our mailing list. Your contact information will be used only to help you resolve your complaint.
