Also about us
About SCPD
Our values are not aspirational statements. They describe what we do and how we do it — what we expect of ourselves, what our clients can expect from us, and what we look for in everyone who joins this office.
courage
We do not choose our clients, and we do not back away from a hard case. Standing up for someone means pushing when giving up would be easier. We test the government’s proof. We raise the issue no one else will raise. We do not let a case end the easy way when it should end the right way. And we hold our own work to the same hard standard we hold the government’s.
Protection
We stand between the people we serve and the power of the government. That does not change with the charge, the client, or who is watching. We guard what our clients put in our hands: their freedom, their record, what they tell us in private. We look out for each other the same way. People who feel supported do better work for the people who need it most.
Fairness
The system only works if someone makes it work the same way for everyone. So we measure ourselves by one question. Did this client get the same preparation, the same skill, and the same respect as everyone else? The answer cannot depend on the charge, or on who the client is. We hold to that inside the office too. We make decisions on the facts, we give credit where it is earned, and we are as honest with each other and with the court as we are with our clients.

We hire for these values first. Experience matters — but so does who you are.
