The Federal Public Defender represents people in federal trial, appeal, non-capital habeas, and capital habeas proceedings. Our staff share a commitment to zealous defense of individuals facing the criminal justice system.
The Federal Public Defender seeks applications from a diverse group of qualified individuals in terms of race, ethnicity, nation of origin, culture, sex, gender identity and expression, sexual identity, education, opinions, age, languages spoken, veteran status, disability, religion, and socio-economic circumstance. We especially encourage applications from members of the BIPOC community, people who have been affected by the criminal legal system, and people from other underrepresented and historically marginalized groups.
