Tuscarawas County Public Defenders

This place is a Joke, Rude receptionist, Due to late mail no interview with the Public Defender. 10 mins before court was it and the amount of lies that came back out of that door.
Pointless to have anyone could’ve done all this at the first court date.
Go get a loan don’t let this round of public defenders represent you.

Mark perlacky was awesome in a trial for me in 2012.he got me aquitted !!! Thats unheard of for public pretenders.... He's not there any more but the professional service was great even though atf carpenter ATF agent lied on the stand to try and bank me. Didn't work. Lol hooray for mark perlacky!!

If I could give them a zero i would! The receptionist is rude and very unhelpful! She does not help at all and treats you as if you are bothering her when you call into the office. I have revieved no court papers even though I know extensions have been filed. I have been left completely in the dark in the entirety of the situation. I truly feel horrible for anyone who has to use this place. I will say the actual attorney when you get to speak to her is nice and helpful I had to go around the receptionist to even be able to speak to the attorney because the receptionist will tell you that she isn't in and then will tell you that she has no information for you at all and that you do not need to speak with her. The only way I was able to speak to this woman was by going around the receptionist and speaking to someone else in an entirely different building and they relayed the message to her that I had been trying to contact her. She then called me and I spoke to her. The receptionist that works their is a horrible woman who should clearly not work in any type of public service job or office. She is truly a sad excuse for a receptionist. She clearly thinks it's okay to treat people as if they are less than her and do not deserve any type of information. I would also like to note that since the whole process has started we have not received a single court paper pertaining to the situation which I find very odd. I am not an expert on this but I would think we should of received something by now since it's been over 6 months and I'm going to go out on a limb and say that it is probably that said receptionists responsibility to send any papers to clients so I guess I shouldn't be surprised we have not received a single piece of paper. If I knew where to go to file an actual complaint against her and find out if we should of received something by now I would.
