Assistant District Attorney – Deed Fraud Investigations - Brooklyn - Brooklyn District Attorney's Office

    Brooklyn District Attorney's Office
    Description

    The Brooklyn District Attorney's Office is seeking an experienced attorney to serve as an Assistant District Attorney specializing in deed fraud investigations and prosecutions within the Office's Investigations Division. This role is dedicated to combating sophisticated real estate fraud schemes that strip Brooklyn residents of their homes, destabilize families, and erode trust in entire communities.

    About the Work

    Deed fraud is among the most devastating financial crimes prosecuted by the Office. These schemes can cost families their most valuable asset—their home—often wiping out generations of stability and wealth in a single fraudulent transaction. Victims are frequently elderly residents, immigrants, and others targeted because of language barriers, isolation, or limited access to legal resources.

    Attorneys in this role investigate and prosecute complex deed theft schemes, forged transfers, fraudulent notarizations, and related financial crimes. The work is investigative, document-intensive, and highly impactful, requiring close collaboration with investigators, analysts, partner agencies, and community stakeholders.

    Responsibilities

    • Investigate and prosecute deed fraud and related real estate and financial crimes
    • Analyze complex property records, financial documents, and transactional histories
    • Work closely with investigators and partner agencies to build long-term investigations
    • Litigate cases from investigation through indictment and disposition
    • Engage with victims and communities affected by deed fraud with sensitivity and care

    Qualifications

    • Admission to the New York State Bar and eligibility to practice law in New York
    • Minimum of three years of legal experience, with investigative, litigation, or complex civil or criminal matters strongly preferred
    • Excellent writing, analytical, and organizational skills
    • Ability to manage sensitive matters involving vulnerable victims
    • Commitment to public service and protecting the integrity of Brooklyn's communities

    Work Environment and Benefits

    This position is based in Brooklyn. Experienced attorneys are eligible for one remote workday per week, consistent with Office policy. The Office offers competitive salaries, comprehensive New York City employee benefits, and membership in the New York City Employees' Retirement System (NYCERS).

    Our Mission and Impact

    The Brooklyn District Attorney's Office is deeply committed to protecting residents from fraud and abuse and to ensuring that families can remain safely housed in their homes. This work is essential to lasting public safety. Under District Attorney Eric Gonzalez's leadership, Brooklyn ended 2025 with the lowest levels of homicides and shootings on record, demonstrating that accountability, prevention, and community trust go hand in hand.

    The Brooklyn District Attorney's Office is an Equal Opportunity Employer and is committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce that reflects the borough we serve.
