Braden Perry Serving as Board Chairperson for the Kansas State Board of Indigents’ Defense Services

Braden Perry, partner at Kennyhertz Perry, is currently serving as Board Chairperson for the Kansas State Board of Indigents’ Defense Services (BIDS). BIDS provides defense counsel for people who are charged with felonies and cannot afford an attorney. The Board consists of nine people appointed by the Governor and subject to confirmation by the Senate. Braden recently spoke with Caroline Zuschek, Deputy Capital Appellate Defender, on his legal career and role with BIDS.

“It was Braden’s work on the CJA panels that inspired him to seek an appointment on the Board. Through his experience as appointed counsel, Braden became passionate about every individual’s right to have competent, qualified counsel, regardless of their financial situation. Though his appointment work was federal, he became intrigued by the State system and desired to use his experience to help protect individuals’ access to counsel at the state level.”
