This role demands initiative and ownership. AUSAs are empowered to identify emerging threats, open and drive investigations, and work closely with law enforcement and agency partners to pursue the cases that matter most.

We strive to build a stronger office through in-depth recruitment efforts and maintain our high standards by promoting professional development.

The Western District of Virginia covers approximately 60 percent of Virginia’s land area and serves a population of 2.2 million. It comprises 52 counties and 18 independent cities.

Job Description:

The United States Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Virginia is soliciting applications to be an Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) within the Civil Division in the Roanoke or Charlottesville, Virginia office.

On the affirmative side, the AUSA will lead investigations and prosecutions of a wide variety of federal civil offenses, including but not limited to violations of the False Claims Act.

The AUSA will also represent federal employees sued in their individual capacities under Bivens or other federal statutes, and will represent the Bureau of Prisons and its employees in a wide variety of prisoner-related litigation.

An AUSA engaged in this challenging work spends substantial time on legal research and writing dispositive motions and drafting findings of fact and conclusions of law, as well as substantial time in discovery (interviewing witnesses, taking and defending depositions, working with expert witnesses, propounding and responding to written discovery requests), and representing the United States in mediations and settlement conferences. Although many cases are resolved through dispositive motion or settlement, the AUSA will also represent the United States at bench and jury trials in federal court

Responsibilities will increase and assignments will become more complex as your training and experience progress.

All initial attorney appointments in the Department of Justice are pending favorable adjudication of a background investigation.

Qualifications:

Required Qualifications:

Assistant United States Attorney's pay is administratively determined based, in part, on the number of years of professional attorney experience. The range of basic pay for AD-21 through AD-29 is as follows:

  • $76,748 to $197,100 which includes 17.06% locality adjustment.
