As the leading resource organization for public defenders in Washington State, and the only organization dedicated solely to public defense issues and public defense attorneys, investigators and social workers, WDA provides a host of resources designed to help our members and the broader public defense community.

Please note that while many of the resources here are available to the public, some are reserved just for those practicing public defense in Washington state, such as the case law updates as well as certain WDA publications.  In addition, there are several areas of this site that are accessible to WDA members only, including an expert bank, a brief bank, and streaming video from past CLE which members can watch on line for CLE credits.  Click here for more information on becoming a member of WDA - WDA Membership.
