This Is Not a Government Office or Records Custodian. We run a private reference site. We cannot pull records, certify copies, confirm where someone lives, or remove information from any database. For any of those, you need to reach the office that holds the record. For emergencies, dial 911. If you believe you are being stalked or harassed, contact local police.
Finding the Correct Records Office
Burien City Hall holds municipal files, while King County and Washington keep most person-indexed records. Start with the custodian that matches the record:
- Deeds, liens, and recorded marriage certificates: use the King County Recorder routes in Burien public records
- Court cases by party name: use the King County court systems summarized under Burien court records
- Birth, death, marriage, and divorce certificates: compare county and state products under Burien vital records
- Voter lookup and voter-file requests: see Burien voter registration records
- Government, school, property, and historical listings: browse Burien people directories
- Records not posted online: send an identifiable-record request to the proper custodian under the Washington Public Records Act, chapter 42.56 RCW
