Schwab Law defends criminal and DUI charges in Everett through the firm’s Western Division. Snohomish County Superior Court sits in Everett on Rockefeller Avenue, and Everett Municipal Court on Wetmore Avenue hears misdemeanors filed by the City — so both the felony and misdemeanor tracks run through the same downtown.
How we help Everett clients
Everett is the county seat, which means a Snohomish County felony from anywhere in the county is heard here. For Everett residents facing a misdemeanor, the city court is a short distance away, and much of the work in between hearings — discovery review, negotiation, motions — does not require either of you to be in a courtroom.
Where is an Everett criminal case heard?
Misdemeanors and gross misdemeanors filed by the City of Everett are heard in Everett Municipal Court at 3028 Wetmore Avenue. That covers most DUI, assault in the fourth degree, theft and domestic violence allegations arising inside city limits.
Felony charges from anywhere in Snohomish County are filed by the county prosecutor in Snohomish County Superior Court at 3000 Rockefeller Avenue. Charges from outside city limits but inside the county go to Snohomish County District Court rather than a city court.

How does a DUI affect a job that requires driving?
More than most people expect, and sooner. The Department of Licensing action begins with the arrest, and a suspension can take effect long before the criminal case is resolved. For anyone whose work depends on a license — trades, delivery, healthcare, sales — that is often the most urgent part of the case.
Most drivers can continue driving on an ignition interlock license during a suspension, but commercial drivers face separate federal consequences that an interlock license does not solve. If you hold a CDL, say so at the first conversation.
Questions from Everett clients
Is Snohomish County Superior Court in Everett?
Yes. Snohomish County Superior Court sits at 3000 Rockefeller Avenue in Everett, and hears felony matters from across the county.
What if my charge came from outside Everett city limits?
Then it is likely in Snohomish County District Court rather than Everett Municipal Court, or in the municipal court of whichever city filed it. Which court has the case affects what can be negotiated, so it is worth confirming early.
