⚖ Defense Attorney Partner Portal

Connect clients to employment before they're released

You see clients months — sometimes years — before release. That's the earliest and most impactful reentry touchpoint. Use it. OpenPath gives defense attorneys a dedicated portal to refer clients, track their employment journey, and access state-specific reentry resources.

Why It Matters
Employment is the strongest reentry predictor
Unemployment in the first 30 days post-release is the #1 risk factor for recidivism. Attorneys who connect clients to employment opportunities pre-release give them a structural advantage most people don't get.
