The Washington Indigent Defense Screening Form is a legal document used by the State of Washington to determine an individual’s eligibility for indigent defense services. The form contains questions about the individual’s financial status, income, assets, and other factors related to their ability to pay for legal representation. Depending on the answers provided, the individual may be determined to be indigent and eligible for a free or reduced-cost attorney. There are two types of Washington Indigent Defense Screening Forms: the Private Defense Services (PDS) Form and the Court Appointed Attorney (CAA) Form. The PDS Form is used by individuals to apply for private defense services, while the CAA Form is used to apply for court-appointed counsel.
