Any way to get into my Google Nexus 7 to access my files?

My tablet screen is broken along the entire left side about an inch in, and along the top about 2 inches in and it doesnt auto rotate. I managed to get it setup to my wifi and it connects to my computer but it isnt set for file transfers so Im unsure how to connect to it to get my files. I dont need the tablet itself so I'd rather not spend 100+$ getting the screen repaired and would like to know if there are any options. Please and thank you.

Plug it into a computer. If you see the phone there, you can copy the files to the computer.

I have it plugged into my laptop, but it isnt set for file transfers so I cant.
