General information, not legal advice

RDAP Program is published by Criminal Center. Brandon Sample is responsible for this website. Criminal Center, 1701 Pennsylvania Ave NW # 200, Washington, DC 20006.

General information, not legal advice

The guides on rdapprogram.com explain federal RDAP law and policy in general terms. They are not legal advice about any person’s case. Laws, regulations, Bureau of Prisons policies and court decisions change, and every case turns on its own facts. The Bureau of Prisons decides admission, placement, treatment completion and any early release. No result is promised. Reading this site does not create an attorney-client relationship.

Attorney advertising notice

Buttons and forms that say “Request a consultation” advertise legal services offered by Criminal Center. They open the consultation page on this site. Sending the request form asks the firm to contact you. It does not by itself book an appointment, file a claim or an administrative remedy, stop a deadline, or make the firm your lawyer. Any consultation and any later representation depend on the terms agreed with the firm.

Do not send sensitive records with a first inquiry. Ask what the firm needs and how to send it after the firm explains what it can receive.

Licensure and scope of practice

Brandon Sample is admitted to practice law only in Vermont. Practice is limited to federal courts and federal agencies.

Criminal Center is not the Bureau of Prisons or any other government agency. It cannot promise admission to treatment or early release.

Links to other sites

Links to statutes, courts and government agencies help you find the source material. Criminal Center does not control those sites and is not responsible for their content. Links to other Criminal Center sites give related information; each page’s subject and rules still need to be read on their own.
