Cowlitz County

Official roster status: Published current roster

Roster type: Combined GAL roster: Title 26 GAL registry (Family Law); Title 11 GAL list (Minor Guardianship); Title 11 registry (Adult Guardianship); official court investigator contact. Source date: Not stated. Last reviewed: August 12, 2026.

Cowlitz County Superior Court’s official GAL program page states that the court maintains a GAL registry and links to separate Title 26, Title 11 minor-guardianship, Title 11 adult-guardianship, and court-investigator pages. The linked pages publish the names and contact details listed above, but do not state an effective date or page-updated date; the Title 26 page explicitly labels its list as the current registry.

What to do next: use the official roster

Cowlitz County publishes an official roster. Work from the court's own page, then confirm availability before you rely on any name.

1. Open the official source below and read the roster as the court publishes it.
2. Call or email the Superior Court administrator to confirm the person is still on the registry and accepting appointments.
3. Ask the court how appointments are made in this county — a roster listing is not an appointment or a referral.
4. Report anything that has changed so the source record can be corrected.
