About visiting the probate court

Who to speak with when visiting the Kitsap County probate court

Upon visiting the Kitsap County Superior Court, look for signs or directions to the probate division within the main courthouse. Once you’ve located the probate division, make your way to any reception desks and ask to speak with a probate clerk or probate judge. The probate clerk at Kitsap County Superior Court may or may not require appointments based upon the busyness of the probate court, so it’s a great idea to call ahead.

Plan ahead to be early in case available parking is limited and be prepared for formal security measures upon entering the building, as courthouses are official state and federal property. This generally includes passing through metal detectors and allowing search of any belongings.

Many courthouses do not allow cell phones, so keep that in mind as your phone may need to be turned off upon entering the courthouse, or even left outside.
Infographic reminder to bring cash, government issued ID, death certificate and relevant last will & testament documents when visiting probate court.

DO NOT HAVE YOUR TRAFFIC TICKETS GO TO COLLECTIONS! Here's why, if you have your traffic ticket goes to collections they will suspend your license the moment you don't make a payment. The court WILL NOT pull ANY traffic ticket/violation out of collections to make the full payment, but they will ONLY pull out MAJOR fines out of collections to deepen their own pockets like the scumbags they are. So good luck getting your license back if it's in the Dynamic Collections Agency they go through. By the way the minimum payment that Dynamic takes every two weeks is $200, so good luck on making payments on those bills because if you're like me and you're a dislocated worker because your license was suspended then you might as say goodbye to your license, because you won't get any help from this court house or Dynamic.

Difficult to get through, clerks have major attitude, get with the 21st century and get on e-filing. It's ridiculous I have to call each time I want to fax file something over 20 pages!

To those complaining about traffic tickets in collection...if you can't afford ticket don't break the law. I realize sometimes things happen but yes you must pay ticket or have license suspended-state law not Kitsap county. People need to take responsibility for their own actions

Because you are privately owned and have no intention of helping anyone except yourself and your own pocketbooks. Port Orchard is corrupt and it is privately owned by judges on the take! Look it up people. It doesn't get any more corrupt than Kidnap County!!!!
