myPD's Caution-Disclaimer

I created this web-app up for my public defender clients in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri. I created it because I believe strongly that my clients can also benefit from such information online (just like individuals facing criminal charges who can pay for an attorney who might have such a website).

While pleased and flattered if others use this web-app, including non-clients, it is important to understand that unless you've (1) applied for the services of a public defender, (2) been approved for a public defender, and (3) I've "entered my appearance" in your criminal matter as your public defender, I am not your attorney.

However, if you have recently been arrested or charged with a felony, a misdemeanor likely to result in confinement, or have a probation violation case, you will likely be entitled to have an attorney appointed if you can't afford one. And the sooner you apply for a public defender, the better. You do not need to wait to have your first court appearance before a judge to apply for a public defender. And you can do so online at the following website >>
