Washington Receiver Bond - Management of Property or a Business
Overview
Get bonded and step into your court-appointed role with confidence. A Washington Receiver Bond for Management of Property or a Business is your guarantee to the court that you will faithfully perform your duties, protect the assets under your control, and account for every dollar. Washington courts require this bond before a receiver can take charge of property or a business placed under receivership. It protects all parties with an interest in those assets — creditors, owners, and the court itself.
Who Needs This Bond?
If you have been appointed by a Washington court to serve as a receiver over property or an operating business, this bond is required before you can act. Receivers are often attorneys, accountants, professional managers, or fiduciaries selected by the court to step in and preserve assets during litigation, insolvency proceedings, or other legal disputes. You cannot legally begin managing the receivership estate in Washington until this bond is in place. The court will not release you to act without it.
What is this Bond For?
This bond holds the receiver financially accountable for how they manage, protect, and distribute the assets of the receivership estate. If a receiver misappropriates funds, fails to properly account for assets, or otherwise breaches their court-ordered duties, an injured party can make a claim against the bond to recover losses. It is not insurance for the receiver — it is a financial guarantee that the receiver will carry out their obligations faithfully. The bond amount is set by the Washington court at the time of appointment.
When is it Required?
Renewal or continuation of this bond tracks the duration of the receivership itself, not a fixed calendar term. The bond must remain active for as long as the court-ordered receivership continues, which means it stays in force until the court discharges the receiver and closes the case. If the receivership extends beyond an initial bond period, the bond must be renewed or extended to maintain continuous coverage. The court will not discharge a receiver until all bond obligations are satisfied and the estate is fully accounted for.
Where Does it Apply?
This is a statewide Washington requirement. Any receiver appointed by a Washington state court to manage property or a business must carry this bond, regardless of which county the court sits in. The bond is tied to the specific court proceeding and the appointment order issued by the judge in that case.
