My attorney didn’t make appt to talk to me until less than 24 hrs before court where she asked for a continuance. Then ignored my calls for weeks. I emailed. I went into office where my attorney said she was too busy to set appt and said case will be dismissed. The week before court she said she wasn’t my attorney that my case was transferred to someone else. With less than a week left I have had no one to collect evidence which there is 7 1:2 weeks of as I , a disabled senior was being terrorized and injured by my landlord until he had me trapped and had to fight to get to safety. The cops refused to help instead said prove it. A had temporary restraining order but was dismissed for lack of evidence. Only to be seriously injured when it ended. This attorney refused to help me after my landlord broke into my place and took all my belongings. She apparently was working with my assailants attorney or doesn’t understand eviction law as she verbally sided with them in violating the law: my rights

extremely nice

Public defenders for cases out of Marysville. They pass you around amongst the other lawyers in the firm so you always seem to have someone new. Called every morning for over a week trying to talk to someone about my case, no answer leave message, and they never call back. Rarely even answer the phone and if they do its just a secretary or paralegal. Leave a message and you still never hear back. My lawyer actually snapped at the prosecutor when they asked if we had set a meeting saying that it was between us and not their business. Obviously more worried about their ego then their clients wellbeing. I get it they have huge case loads and it's not big money but do your job the best you can and that's doing the best for your client.

Attorneys are nice

Attorneys here are nice

Great attorneys an the receptionist is awesome.

They aren't as prompt and diligent as one would hope seeing as though these guys are supposed to help you maintain your freedom. They hold your future in their hands, so you should be able to count on them to do their very best, but I feel like they put forth minimal effort at best.

I know that this is a public defender's office but there was very minimal effort put into my case and the lawyer that I worked with was increasingly negative, despite me having a fairly easy case to win... Out of the 3 public defender's I've had, this one was my least favorite. With that said, I'm happy to have received a lawyer for free and I'm thankful that our country has this program in place.
