407 | How Hennepin County has Expanded the Right to Counsel to Civil Legal Issues w/ Jeanette Boerner, Jessica Ryan and Terrance Hendricks

Today, Hunter was joined by three guests from Hennepin County’s Adult Representation Services. As has been discussed multiple times on the show, many of the clients that walk into a public defender office have legal needs outside their criminal case. Whether it is in eviction court or family court, our clients often do not have access to counsel in these critical cases. ARS was created to fill the gaps in the access to counsel to ensure people have a fighting chance in their civil legal issues.

 

Guest:

Jeanette Boerner, Director of Adult Representation Services, Hennepin County, Minnesota

Jessica Ryan, Principal Attorney, Hennepin County, Minnesota

Terrance Hendricks, Principal Attorney, Hennepin County, Minnesota
