You nephew may be eligible for an appointed attorney. However, it may be he or his parents that have to request it.

Good luck

I would always prefer having a private attorney rather than a court appointed one if I could manage it. The private attorney can spend more time and give more personal attention to your nephew's case. Good luck.
