Established in 1995, Kirkland Municipal Court hears all criminal misdemeanor cases and processes all non-criminal traffic citations and parking citations for violations occurring within the city limits of Kirkland.

Kirkland Municipal Court also provides court services for the Cities of Clyde Hill, Medina, Hunts Point, Yarrow Point and beginning in 2017, the City of Woodinville.  Court operations for the City of Woodinville will be limited to charges issued January 1, 2017 and beyond.  Prior cases will continue to be managed by the Redmond Division of King County District Court.

To better serve the needs of Kirkland’s burgeoning population of 80,000 residents, the City developed a site to house both the Municipal Court and the Police Department.  The Kirkland Justice Center functions as a base for court, police, and corrections services and is centrally located in the Totem Lake Business District. The 102,000 square foot building was transformed from a furniture store into an essential public safety facility. The City purchased the building in 2010 and it was determined that renovating the building was less expensive than designing and constructing a new one.

The Kirkland Municipal Court occupies the south facing portion of the complex and includes two large courtrooms, one small courtroom, a spacious lobby, Judge’s chambers, and staff offices. The physical address for the Kirkland Municipal Court is 11740 NE 118th Street with the entrance on the east side facing I-405.
