We are taking a giant leap forward with our Duty Counsel Portal. The Duty Counsel Portal is critical for our duty counsel lawyers providing frontline legal aid services. The Portal gives our lawyers access to the information they need to effectively support client inquiries at the courthouses.
Starting on May 27, 2024, we’re pleased to announce that access to the DC Portal will be extended to our criminal docket court roster duty counsel lawyers.
Previously, only staff lawyers had access. Now, roster DC can utilize the DC Portal, facilitating improved information sharing among our frontline DC lawyers and enhancing client service continuity.
Training and reference material will be available for all Duty Counsel lawyers. If you have questions about DC Portal Enhancements or need assistance registering for a training session, please contact [email protected].
