Description
This book presents new research and thinking about the role of the defense counsel in the American criminal justice system. The right to counsel is guaranteed, but can an overworked public defender who is paid for the number of cases taken on really be compared with expensive private attorneys? Original essays explore such issues as performance measurement to ensure proper counsel, the differences between public and private defenders, and the dwindling number of private defense counsels.
