The following projects do not fall neatly within the categories of projects previously described. Encompassing both civil and criminal justice delivery services, these projects demonstrate The Spangenberg Group's breadth of experience and expertise.

From 1991 through 1993, The Spangenberg Group provided technical assistance to the Administrative Office of the United States Courts Committee to Review the Criminal Justice Act (the Prado Committee), as it reviewed the organization of the Defender Services Division and considered alternatives.

Under contract with the Ford Foundation, The Spangenberg Group in 1990 conducted two national pro bono surveys. The first survey gathered information on pro bono practices at the 500 largest law firms in the country. The second collected data on both current pro bono activities and potential areas of interest for increased activity among attorneys 60 years of age and older. The surveys were designed to coordinate with and provide statistical information for the ongoing pro bono policy development project of the Ford Foundation.

In 1990, The Spangenberg Group reviewed a Congressional proposal to implement a program of competitive bidding for the federal Legal Services Corporation. The Spangenberg Group specifically examined the competitive bidding proposal in light of similar efforts that have been undertaken around the country in the area of indigent defense delivery. The Spangenberg Group produced a paper comparing the competitive bidding experience in criminal defense from a constitutional, ethical, legal, practical and cost consideration. Robert Spangenberg summarized this work in testimony before Congress.

In 1988, The Spangenberg Group completed a comprehensive study of the probation system in Massachusetts for the Chief Administrative Justice of the Trial Court.
