Lawyers

The “Lawyers in Your Library” Program is available to Wake County residents through a partnership between Wake County Public Libraries and the county's legal support center.

The North Carolina Administrative Office of the Courts identified Halifax County as a legal desert in northeastern North Carolina, with only about one attorney for every 1,000 people. This year, the office created a new group of public defenders there. WUNC's Will Michaels spoke with Tonza Ruffin, the lead public defender in District 7, about her goals for the new office.
