Department of Justice

Trial Attorney Positions

The Department of Justice's National Fraud Enforcement Division ("Fraud Division") investigates and prosecutes those who commit fraud against the American people. We fulfill our mission by using advanced data-driven investigative techniques; coordinating with agencies responsible for administering taxpayer-funded programs; partnering with federal, tribal, state, territorial, and local law enforcement on fraud-fighting efforts; developing systems and processes that ensure efficient identification and investigation of fraud; and equipping prosecutors and law enforcement with state-of-the-art tools and resources needed to bring criminal actors to justice. The Fraud Division works every day to protect the financial integrity of the United States of America, ensure the vibrancy of the American economy, and seek justice for victims of fraud. This posting is for Trial Attorney positions within the Fraud Division's Public Trust and Financial Integrity Section. This announcement will be open until positions are filled. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis beginning on or before June 15, 2026.

Job Description

The Fraud Division is seeking qualified, experienced attorneys for permanent Trial Attorney positions within the Public Trust and Financial Integrity Section.

The Fraud Division's Public Trust and Financial Integrity Section is focused on dismantling the most complex schemes to defraud the United States and taxpayers, including foreign and domestic companies, organizations, and individuals who defraud public benefit programs, evade tariffs, bilk government procurement, or otherwise threaten the financial integrity of the United States or its citizens. The experienced attorneys assigned to the Public Trust and Financial Integrity Section are responsible for developing and advancing investigations of these offenses and personally prosecuting offenders in district court on behalf of the United States.

Generally, as a Trial Attorney, the incumbent:

  • In collaboration with section managers, carries out and fosters effective investigations and prosecutions, including advising on strategy and legal complexities, and developing litigation priorities.
  • Recommends charging decisions and proposes dispositions with regard to assigned cases.
  • Partners with Assistant U.S. Attorneys and attorneys in other federal law enforcement agencies in the development, management and trial of program, trade, and other related financial fraud cases.
  • Engages in all phases of investigation and litigation, including, but not limited to, using the grand jury, advising federal law enforcement agents, utilizing international evidence collection tools, preparing appropriate pleadings, and litigating motions and trials before U.S. District Courts across the country.
  • Advises and instructs Assistant U.S. Attorneys on complicated questions of law and Departmental policy with respect to matters arising under the internal revenue laws.
  • Advises and consults with the Assistant Attorney General, Deputy Assistant Attorney General, Section Chief, and other managers reporting on the status of all cases and matters related to criminal remedies.
