Early Representation Unit

The Early Representation Unit provides legal representation for newly arrested defendants in First Appearance Court 365 days a year. Our dedicated attorneys handle the unfiled cases following first appearance court, investigating the allegations made by law enforcement, litigating motions before the court, conducting legal research and engaging the State of Florida’s criminal case filing attorneys. We also advocate to ensure that our incarcerated clients receive appropriate medical and mental health care and are treated with dignity and respect while housed in the Broward County Jail.
