Criminal Defense Legal Assistance Initiative

Criminal defense appointments number in the thousands each year and collectively with criminal defense attorneys, public defender staff, and the private bar, many people have been helped through tough times in their lives. We are in the midst of a social justice crisis. The shortage of lawyers is part of a larger pattern of disserving the neediest people in our community. We stand with those providing civil legal services, housing supports, neighborhood efforts at building resilience and preventing violence. In seeking help from already busy people, we do not imply fault or responsibility for a problem which we, as members of a civilized society, must meet. Rather we come in humility asking for help in serving deserving clients.

If you are able to accept appointments from the Office of the Public Defender it would be greatly appreciated. If you know of an attorney that could help out, please encourage them to do so.
