Nevada state law requires counties whose population is 100,000 or more to create a county public defender office. Smaller counties may elect to create a public defender office. Three counties have county public defender offices,
Clark Washoe and Elko Counties. The Nevada State Public Defender's Office has responsibility to provide assistance of counsel to indigent juveniles in juvenile court in counties with populations under 100,000 which do not have a county public defender office.
