Press and Media Outlets

PDMC respects the Fourth Estate and the First Amendment. The office has a policy of cooperating with the media to the extent such contact is ethically permitted, and as long as the communications are not adverse to any client’s interest. In general that means while a case is pending we will be able to communicate with you only about procedural matters and fact-specific information that is already a matter of public record. Once the case is resolved the ethical restrictions are somewhat relaxed, but our principle obligation remains to our client or former client.

If you are seeking general information about the criminal justice system, comments on a particular law, or a piece of legislation that impacts the criminal justice system our attorneys are happy to speak with you as time permits. Questions of such a general nature should probably be directed to the Executive Director, however.
