As a Deputy District Attorney (DDA), you will protect victims' rights, promote community safety, hold offenders accountable, and work to protect the constitutional rights of all in the system. You will have the chance to make a real difference in the lives of others. Your case load will be based upon your demonstrated experience and skill set, but as you progress, you can expect to be assigned an increasingly complex and challenging case load. The goal is to fill this position as a Deputy District Attorney 3. However, applicants who can meet the minimum qualifications for the Deputy District Attorney 1 or 2 are also encouraged to apply. The first review of applications will be on January 16, 2026. Applications that are submitted after this date may or may not be considered for interviews.

Our Prosecution Approach: We use a vertical prosecution model, where each DDA handles their cases from review and charging through trial and sentencing. You will be encouraged to take on more challenging cases as you advance in skill and experience. We provide our DDAs with a broad range of case assignments, but we will encourage you to develop an expertise in your particular areas of interest. As a deputy district attorney, we will expect you to exercise a fair amount of autonomy regarding your cases, including making charging decisions, or in resolving or trying cases by "seeking justice through the truth" (our motto).
