U.S. Attorneys

U.S. Attorneys are federal prosecutors who represent the United States in criminal and civil cases across specific regions called districts. They are responsible for enforcing federal laws, investigating crimes, and prosecuting offenders on behalf of the government. Appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, U.S. Attorneys serve as the main legal officers in their districts, working closely with federal agencies, law enforcement, and the courts. Their role ensures that federal laws are enforced fairly and effectively within their jurisdictions.
