Assistant U.S. Attorneys

Assistant U.S. Attorneys are lawyers who work for the federal government, specifically within the U.S. Department of Justice. They assist in prosecuting cases on behalf of the United States, including criminal cases, civil suits, and appeals. Their work involves investigating cases, presenting evidence in court, and ensuring that federal laws are upheld. Each U.S. Attorney’s Office, located in various districts across the country, employs these attorneys to handle legal matters within their jurisdictions, representing the interests of the government and the public.
