    Look him up in the phone book or call the public defender's office. If he is a private attorney he will be listed in the phone book.

    Hi, letitia lavoie!

    I find this to be confusing. If you know the name of the attorney and where he is located, why would there be a problem with contacting him, please? I can see where he might be contacted and might not be able to tell you anything about the case because of confidentiality issues though.

    Thanks!
