Benefits of Membership in KACDL
Letter from the President of KACDL
Have you ever felt isolated and under attack while defending an unpopular
client? Have you ever wished for more resources to assist you in your
criminal defense practice? Have you ever been frustrated with a
court's failure to uphold the rights of your clients? Each of us has
experienced these feelings, and has gratefully turned to the Kansas
Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers for support. As fellow
defenders of the accused, we invite you to join this excellent organization.
KACDL was established in 1988 as an educational network for criminal defense
lawyers, and has grown into Kansas' premier defender organization.
KACDL many benefits include the following:
- Two annual CLE seminars
- Strike force support - help when you face an emergency
(see Strike Force Archives)
- Newsletter "The Defense Never Rests"
- Legislative voice
- Amicus assistance

As we hope this list of benefits demonstrates, your membership in KACDL
promises to enhance your skills as a defense practitioner and give you the
confidence and comradery necessary to carry on this challenging work.
