At Brooklyn Defender Services, we realize that an effective defense often requires far more than just a trained, experience lawyer. That's why we tap into a vast network of experts, consultants and alternative-to-incarceration programs that help our clients in ways that go well beyond the trial and negotiating skills of even the best lawyers.

Here is some brief information on just a few of the organizations with which we work:

exalt partners with schools, criminal justice agencies and other nonprofits to serve a mixture of youth, ages 15-20, both in and outside of the criminal justice system. exalt acts as a prevention for justice system involvement to youth at risk of getting caught in it, and as a catalyst for integration into our economic mainstream for those who have already entered the system.
