A free Prison Professors resource

Federal Criminal Defense Attorney Directory

People facing federal criminal charges often search for counsel during a difficult and uncertain time. We created this free directory to help individuals and families begin that search with more information.

Federal cases proceed within federal judicial districts. Start with the district where the case is pending, then review the attorney profiles available for that district.

Our team speaks with federal defense attorneys across the country and shares the free resources Prison Professors provides. Attorneys do not pay to appear in this directory, and they do not provide referral fees. Inclusion is not a ranking, recommendation, endorsement, or guarantee. We encourage every person to conduct independent due diligence before selecting counsel.

Select a state on the map to view its federal judicial districts and available attorney profiles. If the state has more than one district, choose the district where the case is pending.

Our team is actively speaking with federal defense attorneys as we work to add profiles in every judicial district. We seek attorneys who recognize the value of preparation and encourage clients to take an active role in developing self-directed plans for the journey ahead. Because the directory continues to grow, some districts may not yet include an attorney profile.
