We are working with the Maine Commission on Indigent Legal Services (MCILS), to:

  • Identify and develop best practices to facilitate MCILS’s training, evaluation and support of court appointed counsel

  • Identify strategies to increase the recruitment and retention of public defense lawyers in rural communities

  • Develop training curriculum concepts and provide training to the criminal defense bar on relevant topics

    • This project included conducting court observations in several rural counties.

    • We hosted two training for Maine lawyers, one focused on small group skills practice for new lawyers and another for all criminal defense counsel spanning many practice areas.

  • Examine and support the delivery of public defense services in Maine by developing tools to aid MCILS in their assessment and support of Maine’s court appointed counsel
