Who We Are and What We Do

Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell is the chief lawyer and law enforcement officer of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. In addition, her office serves as an advocate and resource for the Commonwealth, its residents and businesses in many areas, including protecting consumers, combating fraud and corruption, protecting civil rights, and promoting meaningful economic recovery.

The main office of the Attorney General is located in Boston. Regional offices are located in Western, Central and Southeastern Massachusetts, allowing residents statewide access to services and information.

The Attorney General's Office is organized into six distinct bureaus. The divisions and teams within each bureau have distinct missions, but work closely together to ensure the Attorney General’s Office provides the highest level of public protection. 

Who Should Apply

The AGO acknowledges and appreciates the different perspectives and backgrounds that make our Commonwealth unique. We seek talented and passionate people with a commitment to public service to help us in the important work we do. There is not one particular path to the AGO for attorneys or non-legal staff. We welcome and value applicants from a wide spectrum of backgrounds and experiences. Our work incorporates a broad selection of legal practice areas in a variety of subject matters and relies on our teams of attorneys, administrative staff, investigators, paralegals, victim witness advocates, and others. The work of our distinct bureaus includes public protection, criminal prosecution, civil litigation (affirmative and defensive), regulatory work, appellate work, administrative work, and much more.
