Where can I find information about unlawful detainer?
Chapter 59.18 RCW (The Residential Landlord-Tenant Act) addresses the duties, obligations, and responsibilities in residential landlord-tenant situations. There are also self-help legal resources at www.washingtonlawhelp.org. These resources include information on landlord-tenant issues, including evictions.
Depending on the applicants economic resources and other factors, a person may also receive legal advice on unlawful detainers from the Northwest Justice Project - http://www.nwjustice.org/.
The Northwest Justice Project has toll-free phone numbers for people who may be eligible for their free legal services for low-income people in non-criminal matters:
