Orange County Legal Aid-C Defender Office Called Cheapest
Norman Shapiro, chief legal aid attorney, told the board that Orange County’s combined legal aid and defender office is the most economical in New York State and possibly the United States. In 1967 Orange spent about $40 per case across 633 defender and 958 civil cases, far less than Rockland County’s $114 per case. Shapiro notes civil work costs are where savings occur and urges continued mixed-office contracting as the most economical public defense model.
