public defender horror stories

One common element is the lack of resources. Public defenders often don't have enough time or funds to properly investigate cases. Another is inexperience. Some new public defenders may not be fully equipped to handle complex cases. Also, high caseloads mean they can't give each case the attention it deserves.

Well, in one instance, a public defender had a huge caseload. They didn't communicate well with their client. They failed to inform the client about a plea bargain offer in time. By the time the client found out, it was too late, and the client faced a much harsher sentence than they might have otherwise.

There was a situation where a public adjuster misinterpreted the insurance policy. A business owner had flood damage, and the adjuster wrongly told him that certain types of damages were not covered.

Later, when he got a second opinion, he found out that the adjuster was wrong, but by then it was a big hassle to get the insurance company to re - evaluate the claim.

There are cases where public housing is overrun by pests. In certain areas, rats are a huge problem. They chew through wires, which is a fire hazard, and they also contaminate food. Families living there are constantly worried about their children getting bitten or getting sick from the diseases these pests carry. It's really a nightmare for the residents.
