America is calling — and for attorneys who still believe in justice, duty, and the rule of law, this is your moment.
The Civil Rights Division of the United States Department of Justice is expanding its ranks, and they are looking for experienced attorneys ready to take on some of the most important and complex legal battles in the nation.
If you’ve ever wanted your legal work to matter — not just to a client, but to the country — this is the opportunity.
What the Civil Rights Division Does — And Why It Matters
According to the Department of Justice:
“The Civil Rights Division seeks experienced attorneys to work on a variety of significant and complex issues to enforce federal statutes and executive orders that prohibit unlawful discrimination, including discrimination in voting, education, employment, housing, police services, public accommodations and facilities, and federally funded and conducted programs.”
This division protects the rights of every American.
Its attorneys are on the front lines of:
Voting rights
Education equity
Employment fairness
Housing discrimination cases
Law enforcement oversight
Public accommodations
Civil liberties in federally funded programs
This isn’t ordinary legal work.
This is the battlefield where America’s most fundamental freedoms are defended.
Who They’re Looking For
The DOJ is calling for serious, experienced, mission-driven attorneys — patriots who:
Understand the Constitution not just as a document, but as a promise
Are skilled in litigation, investigations, or complex federal legal work
Want to work on high-impact civil rights cases
Believe that justice is a duty, not just a job
If that sounds like you — or someone you know — the nation truly does await your call.
What Applicants Should Know
Location: Washington, D.C.
Experience: Not entry-level — they want seasoned legal professionals
Telework: Not eligible
Salary Range: Approximately $120,579 – $195,200 (GS-13 to GS-15)
Travel: May be required
For attorneys ready to commit to public service at the highest level, the path is open.
Why Serve Now?
Because America is at an inflection point.
Because civil rights — the promise that every American is treated equally under the law — must be protected vigorously.
Because our country needs capable, principled, patriotic legal warriors to carry the torch.
If you believe in justice…
If you believe in freedom…
If you believe your skills can strengthen America…
This is your chance to step into the arena.
Final Word From Bob Sutton
If you feel called to serve, answer that call.
America needs you.
The Department of Justice needs you.
And the mission of civil rights — real, enforceable, constitutional rights — needs attorneys who still believe in duty, honor, and country.
The country awaits your call.
