City Attorney Divisions

We have divided our office into divisions that reflect these three distinct roles – the Advisory Division, the Civil Litigation Division, and the Criminal Division.

In addition, there is a fourth division – the Community Justice Division – where we deliver community-based legal work on behalf of the City of San Diego such as consumer protection enforcement and code enforcement units.
