Public Defender Resources

The Public Defender Service for the District of Columbia just reached out to law career advisors nationally to share their excitement about the bright, dedicated students spending their summer with their office.  PDSDC is one of the premier public defender employers, and their training is not only excellent but ongoing for all employees.  PDSDC is not participating in the Equal Justice Works job fair this fall, so if you are interested in this employer, please make to visit their website for more information.

Are you so committed to public defense that you'll consider other locations? Check out the Criminal Law Careers section of PSLawNet for additional resources and information.  And feel free to make an appointment with Alisa Rosales by calling to 312-362-8385 to discuss your options further.
