Gov. Jay Inslee appointed Jennifer Slattery to the Whatcom County Superior Court. She will fill a new, fifth seat created by the Legislature in 2024.

For the last seven years, she operated her own small firm, consistently employing students part-time to build practical experience. Her family law practice includes litigation, collaborative law, and mediation. Since 2023, Slattery has also served as a pro tem commissioner for the Whatcom County Superior Court. In that capacity, she presides over minor guardianship, protection orders, dependency, juvenile detention, unlawful detainers, and criminal arraignments. Since 2018, she has been a member of the Bellingham Sunrise Rotary Club. Slattery has also served for several years as a board director with the Whatcom Community College Foundation and as a volunteer attorney with LAW Advocates and Street Law clinics. As a volunteer attorney, she has provided extensive pro bono legal assistance. Slattery earned her bachelor's degree from the University of Washington, and her law degree from Seattle University Law School.
