IRS990/Desc0Attorneys and support staff at the Linn County Advocate provide quality representation for hundreds of clients in criminal and juvenile cases at the state court level. Clients had no upfront costs for these services allowing them to be represented by competent counsel, and access discovery investigative services as part of that representation. Services resulted in numerous acquittals, dismissals, reduced charges, and negotiated sentences for criminal defendants. In juvenile court proceedings attorneys were able to represent children and parents in Child in Need of Assistances cases, delinquency matters, and mental health and substance abuse committals. These services resulted in family preservation, reunification, less restrictive placements, child protection, right to trial, accessibility to a variety of court ordered and funded services, as well as long term permanency outcomes in the best interest of the children involved.
