Let’s talk about the power of public defense & the impact of (misleading) crime narratives this election year! Join @nlada and public defense chiefs from across the U.S. on March 18 – Gideon Day – for a 1-hr virtual discussion. Register: tinyurl.com/nlada-gideon #FundPublicDefense

Our work is not solely about winning a case. It's about our communities.

As Chief Public Defender of @NMDefenders, Ben Baur uses his 25 years of litigation experience to help New Mexicans navigate criminal charges and receive a fair trial. Chief Baur is joining our panel on strategically and effectively building #community as a #publicdefender at ACCD's annual conference — happening in Washington, DC on June 20-21.

LOPD seeks independent contract attorneys across New Mexico for all criminal case types - including appellate and habeas. Application instructions are on our website.

It’s National Public Defense Day, a reminder that our work is a necessity in the criminal court system - not a luxury.

We're solid. And we're hiring. #PublicDefense #PublicDefender

What do police interrogations look like in New Mexico? Thanks @KUNMnews kunm.org/local-news/2024-09-…

If you are waiting on bar results and are looking for places to land, New Mexico is in the prime of prickly pear season just saying! We have an amazing statewide public defender office and most of our rural areas offer very competitive pay and lower cost of living. The offices in the 12th (where I work) are very trial heavy and we also have a vigorous motions practice. You will not be bored! And you will be sooo supported. We also serve the very best people- our work is rewarding ❤️. Consider applying at lopdnm.us/careers/. *Gratuitous picture of the hubs harvesting what became prickly pear syrup over the weekend 🌵🤤*

Public Defenders Are Essential
