Delco Defenders

Delco Defender attorney Andrea West did a great job moderating a roundtable discussion hosted by PDAP: Public Defenders of Color Discuss their Experiences Navigating the Court System. Joining other panelists from around the state was our own juvenile social service advocate, Natacha Carroll. Thank you to all of the presenters for sharing your experiences and valuable insights and thank you, PDAP, for your ongoing support and education of the public defense community.

Congratulations to three of our Delco Defender team who were recognized by the Public Defender Association of Pennsylvania for their contributions to public defense in 2024. From right to left, Lead Investigator Alyssa Biederman and Case Aide Sabrina Albright—winners of the 2024 Lifesaver Award—and Assistant Public Defender Anna Hinchman, finalist for the David Crowley Award.

Thank you, Nationalities Services Center, for a highly-informative training on immigration-related consequences of criminal prosecution. Great turnout at this event hosted by the Delaware County Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.

Celebrating another year of zealous advocacy, mitigated outcomes, not guilty verdicts, litigated motions, social service supports, trainings, successful investigations, increased programming, and amazing colleagues at the Delco Defender holiday party.
