Assistant County Attorney

Location: Manchester, New Hampshire

Job Type: Full-Time

Department: Hillsborough County Attorney’s Office

Hillsborough County, the most populous county in New Hampshire (with over 430,000

residents), seeks a dedicated Assistant County Attorney to join our team of prosecutors. We

pursue justice with professionalism, excellence, and pride while upholding the New Hampshire

Rules of Professional Conduct, American Bar Association Standards for the Prosecution

Function, and National District Attorneys Association guidelines.

As an Assistant County Attorney, you will serve as counsel for the State of New Hampshire in

criminal matters. You will primarily handle felony and serious misdemeanor cases in Superior

Court.

Responsibilities include:

• Reviewing criminal investigations and evidence submitted by the Hillsborough County

Sheriff’s Office, New Hampshire State Police, and law enforcement agencies from the

cities of Manchester and Nashua plus 29 towns.

• Drafting indictments and presenting cases to the Grand Jury.

• Representing the State at bail hearings, pretrial motion hearings, depositions, and trials.

• Conducting legal research, responding to defense motions, preparing witnesses, and

arguing at sentencing and post-conviction proceedings.

• Collaborating closely with police, victim/witness coordinators, court staff, and the public

to ensure victims are supported throughout the prosecution process.

• Mentoring interns and Rule 36 attorneys.

One attorney in the office is on call 24/7 to assist law enforcement. Our team consists of

approximately 25 prosecutors supported by experienced legal staff, four Victim Witness

Coordinators, two investigators with decades of combined law enforcement experience

(including a dedicated Sexual Assault Investigator), and a full-time Program Support Specialist

who manages digital evidence such as body-worn camera footage and surveillance video.

Preferred Qualifications: Criminal defense or prosecution experience is preferred, but we will

fully train the right candidate with strong potential.

Requirements:

• Juris Doctor degree from an accredited law school.

• Admission to the New Hampshire Bar (or eligibility for admission).

Status: Full-Time, Exempt

The Hillsborough County Attorney’s Office is the focal point for criminal prosecution in our

area. If you are passionate about public service, committed to ethical prosecution, and ready to

make a meaningful impact in a dynamic team environment, we encourage you to apply.
