A Culture of Learning
We provide regular annual formal training, but there’s more to development than formal training: our strongest asset is our culture, where lawyers engage in daily discussions of their cases and the law. While our APDs handle their own caseloads with a good deal of autonomy, we aim to provide the learning experiences and environment necessary for them to do so in a highly competent and professional manner.
How to Apply
The Office of the Public Defender is always interested in speaking with qualified applicants. If you are interested in providing zealous advocacy for indigent clients, please provide:
