Defender Association of Philadelphia

She has been so helpful! She has kept me posted & up to date on everything! Even texted me at 10: 30pm to tell me more info

The PD that is fighting to release my loved one during COVID has never stopped fighting despite Judge Coyle’s ridiculous ruling, denying everyone’s petitions and even raising bail. Communication is phenomenal replies every time and most of the time the same day. I wish every PD had the dedication of Harshila

It's the public defenders office, don't come in expecting them to get you out of a crime you actually committed. A public defender can only work with what they have from you and the court.

Everyone deserves good legal representation. In Philadelphia, the "Defender Association of Philadelphia represents approximately seventy percent of all persons arrested in" in the city!

Food was awful, my first time ever eating at Friday's and it will be my last. I'm sticking to my Applebee's

My experience was great. Luke Trama is one of the brightest, kindest, public defenders I have ever met. Not only that, he gave me that personal touch you don't usually find. He is the BEST OF THE BEST. He really cares about his clients and their families.

I am currently fighting for a loved ones freedom with a public defender and I really had high hopes of her being a knowledgeable and caring person and I am being proven wrong every single time everytime I speak to this woman. She has done nothing she doesn't even know how to spell my loves ones last name this is so depressing I've only spoken to her twice and I'm losing hope in her every truly lifting a finger for him this is sickening how much she doesn't care.

Ain't nothing like the law that's why they call it law enforcement the defender Association of Philadelphia the best lawyers in Philadelphia

Can Be a Rewarding Experience, IF you Do Not Need to be there! They make an Effort to Educate Citizens about their Constitutional Rights. Valuable Asset.

I had the opportunity to have Mr. Byron Cotter work on my case (s). Mr. Cotter managed to Have all 3 of my warrants lifted even though the 1 warrant was a V. O. P, which was my second violation of probation, not to mention I was on the run for 2 years. He managed all this from the confines of his office without either of us stepping foot in court OR state road. This being said I would give them 8 out of 10 stars.

Public pretender is more like it! In this country and Philly especially, if u do not have money for a proper defense ur going down. These guys just keep the wheels rolling for the corrupt DA withnew power just waiting to get even.

I was told that a motion was placed on my behalf. Afterwards the PD quit the firm and lied about my motion. This was 4 months ago and my new pd never contacted me.

Extremely horrible service. If the employees have trouble dealing with people, a job consisting of answering phone calls shouldn't be in the question. Called just to get an unnecessary attitude.

Went to court and the child Advicit and their attorney request that parenting capacity evaluation be part of the case, PEC has nothing to do with parenting or kids, but they made sure that the PEC wanted details of my rape when I was 10yrs old. I'm now 38yrs old. It's nice to be re-victimize by the system.
