Travis County has selected the Capital Area Private Defender Service ("CAPDS") to establish meaningful standards for quality representation, ensure assigned counsel exceeds these standards, oversee the work of assigned counsel and provide educational and mentoring services to support those assigned to represent indigent clients.
