Sublette County, WY Public Defender’s Office

The Sublette County Public Defender's Office is located in Jackson, WY. With one Supervising Attorney and other legal support staff, this Public Defender's office's mission is to provide effective assistance of counsel to indigent adults and juveniles accused of a crime in Sublette County. An individual must apply for a public defender by completing a detailed financial statement and agreeing to provide documentation concerning income, assets, and debts for the person and the person’s spouse if any. This information generally is provided to a court employee who reviews the financial information and makes a recommendation to the judge on whether or not the person is eligible for government-paid counsel. Individuals determined to be eligible for court-appointed counsel do not have the right to choose who their attorney will be. However, they do have the right to have competent legal representation.
