Family courts are harming abuse victims, including children
We believe it is by design
Washington’s Family Courts Aren’t Just Failing. They’ve Been Captured.
This isn’t about “high conflict custody". It’s about government abuse hiding behind black robes and social justice narratives.
They Say It’s About the Children. It’s Not.
Courts claim to protect children—but what they really protect is power, political agendas, and endless billing cycles. Judges answer to no one. Court-appointed professionals profit unchecked. Social services and nonprofits stay silent to keep their funding. In this system, children’s safety is negotiable. Judicial discretion is not.
Family Court Is Where the System Makes You Pay to Be Abused.
The Washington State Family Courts are complicit in severe human rigEvaluators, therapists, and court-appointed experts have turned family court into a billion-dollar industry of control. What starts as a $20K custody case can spiral into $300K or more. Facts take a back seat to bias. There’s no neutral ground—only power, and who gets to wield it.hts injustices. Abusers, predominantly personalities embolden with power and control, are empowered to harm victims through the Family Court system.
The Only Court With No Public Defenders—And No Accountability.
In criminal court, you get a lawyer and often support from a tax payer funded non-profit, same with dependency court. But in family court—you get nothing. It’s the only courtroom where your rights disappear the moment you walk in.
Justice Isn’t Legal Anymore. It’s Political.
Over 92% of judges weren’t elected in Washington State. Commissioners—the ones making most family court decisions at the onset—aren’t elected at all. Judicial associations and private member groups write the rules. Politicians rubber-stamp them. You never had a vote—but you’re living under their power.
Reform Isn’t Enough. It’s Time to Rewrite the Rules.
This isn’t about tweaking the system—it’s about reclaiming it. Ban gag orders. Enforce the laws already on the books. End unchecked judicial discretion. Create real, independent oversight. Family court belongs to the public—not private interests.
You’re Not Alone. And You’re Not Imagining It.
Victims across Washington are telling the same story—and it’s time the public listened. Real voices. Expert insight. Storytelling that breaks the silence and proves this crisis is not in your head. It’s in the system.
