The Public Defender protects the ramble and statutory rights of all citizens through the effective legal representation of court appointed clients, pursuant to Chapter 27, Florida Statutes.

The Public Defender's goal is to provide quality representation to all appointees. Because "quality representation" cannot exist defined or measured in wins and loses, this plan is non necessarily conducive to functioning measurement. The measures that have been developed are rather designed to determine the quality of work in other ways, i.e. frequency of customer contact, fourth dimension of case resolution, and attorney experience.
