About Clinton County Public Defender's Office
The Clinton County Public Defender's Office is a county government office in Plattsburgh, New York. It represents people in Clinton County who cannot afford a lawyer when they face criminal charges. Its stated goal is efficient, cost-effective representation in each criminal court in the county. The Clinton County Legislature authorized the office in December 2018, and a five-year state grant aimed at improving the county's indigent defense system funded its opening.
The office handles criminal cases, while family court matters remain with the county's assigned counsel program. Its attorneys represent indigent defendants from arrest through each stage of the proceedings. The office is located at 12 New York Road in Plattsburgh, and clients are seen by appointment only. Office hours are 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Monday through Friday, and a drop box is available for paperwork when the office is closed.
