Family Court Services
The Evaluators and Conciliators in Family Court Services (FCS) assist the court by collecting information that promotes beneficial outcomes for children and families. We also assist the court by identifying risks so that steps can be taken to ensure the safety of children. We offer the following specific services to parents and custodians involved in Family Law actions.
We do not provide legal advice or assistance in completing forms. We also do not provide case information outside the services listed below.
Questionnaires for FCS cases may be filled out electronically and emailed to fcs@kingcounty.gov.
Mail sent to our office is picked up 2 days per week. We will accept documents for your Evaluator / Conciliator (but cannot accept court hearing working papers.)
To better serve you, we ask that you use our email address listed under Contact for questions. Emails are responded to during normal business hours, also listed above.
