The mission of the United States Attorneys is to serve as the nation's principal litigators under the direction of the Attorney General. There are 93 United States Attorneys stationed throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands.

Each United States Attorney is the chief federal law enforcement officer of the United States within his or her particular jurisdiction. United States Attorneys conduct most of the trial work in which the United States is a party. The United States Attorneys have three statutory responsibilities under Title 28, Section 547 of the United States Code:

• The prosecution of criminal cases brought by the Federal Government.
• The prosecution and defense of civil cases in which the United States is a party.
• The collection of debts owed to the Federal Government which are administratively uncollectible.

Although the distribution of caseload varies between districts, each U.S. Attorney's Office (USAO) deals with every category of cases and handles a mixture of simple and complex litigation.
