The
job of the Pima County Attorney is to see that the
laws of the State of Arizona are faithfully executed
and enforced. As public prosecutors, we uphold the
Constitution by serving the courts and you. We are
your advocates. We represent the legal interests
of the community as we prosecute violations of state
laws that occur within Pima County and promote public
safety. We serve as a driving force for many programs
that work to reduce crime, protect innocent victims
and enhance the quality of life in our community.
Though our primary responsibility is upholding the
criminal laws of this state, we also give legal
advice to the county, collect
bad checks, promote rehabilitation for drug
and alcohol abusers, assist crime victims, offer
numerous crime prevention programs, including an
anonymous tip hotline for reporting illegal activity
(88-Crime), and act as
the legal representatives for Pima County.
We hope you will find this site interesting and
useful. If you have any suggestions, please feel
free to let us know by emailing the webmaster at
