These lawyers are protecting our most complex clients — many of whom are struggling with mental health issues, housing and addictions that complicate their lives and make it difficult for them to deal with their legal matters. In many cases, these clients have changed lawyers multiple times.
The CTG team takes a holistic approach to supporting these complex clients. At the end of its first year, the CTG had active cases for about 265 adults and 300 youth. These cases included trials and appeals, providing full service to clients.
