San Fernando District Attorney’s Office
900 Third St., 3 rd Floor
San Fernando, Ca. 91340
Phone 818-898-2511
Fax 818-898-2743
As the largest local prosecutorial agency in the nation, the Los Angeles
County District Attorney’s Office has a jurisdiction covering
4,083 square miles. The territory stretches from Antelope Valley to
Long Beach, from Pomona to Malibu.
On average the District Attorney’s Office prosecutes nearly
60,000 felonies and 200,000 misdemeanors a year. The Juvenile Division,
which has nine offices throughout the County, files approximately 30,000
criminal petitions a year against criminal offenders under 18 years
of age.
FAMILY VIOLENCE
Stopping the cycle of domestic violence is a major priority of the
District Attorney's Office. The office does this by diligently prosecuting
family violence crimes and helping victims with care and compassion.
The District Attorney’s Office also participates in multi-agency
efforts to combat family violence throughout the County. As chief prosecutor
in the county, the District Attorney appoints the Chair of the Los
Angeles County Domestic Violence Council. Pamela Booth, the Head Deputy
of the District Attorney’s Family Violence Division, currently
serves as Chair.
The Family Violence Division, which handles cases in Downtown Los
Angeles and the surrounding areas, was created to deal with the most
serious offenders and to sensitively help victims with the healing
process. The Family Violence Division is comprised of specially trained
attorneys who vertically prosecute spousal abuse, physical child abuse,
and other domestic violence crimes. This means that one deputy district
attorney handles each case from beginning to end. The District Attorney’s Victim
Impact Program enhances the Office’s ability to prosecute
family violence crimes throughout the outlying areas of the County.
The District Attorney’s Office pledges to treat all family violence
victims with the dignity and understanding they deserve. We will file
criminal charges whenever there is legally sufficient evidence of a
family violence crime and hope that all victims cooperate with our
efforts. However, because our client, the People of the State of California,
has an interest in protecting the safety of family violence victims
and holding perpetrators accountable for their crimes, the District
Attorney’s Office will proceed with family violence prosecutions
with or without the victim’s cooperation.
For information on how victims can protect themselves and their children,
please read the District
Attorney’s Office Advice to Family Violence Victims and Witnesses .
Helpful Telephone Numbers |
In 1994, the District Attorney’s Office established the Los
Angeles County Domestic Violence Hotline – (800) 978-3600 – which
helps victims find "A Safe Way Out" of their abusive environments.
This multi-lingual toll-free service routes victims of domestic violence
directly to trained shelter personnel in Los Angeles County. Learn
more about the Hotline by clicking the link above.
The County of Los Angeles has also established a Child Abuse
Hotline – (800) 540-4000 – where people can

The primary responsibility of the Public Defender's Office is to ensure
the representation of any person -- whether in custody or not -- who
has been accused of a crime, but is currently unable to afford to hire
private defense counsel.
If you have been arrested and remain in custody , you will
be brought to a local court usually within 48 hours of your arrest.
If you are not in custody , you will be given a time and place
to appear for your first court date. The first court date is called
the arraignment . When you first appear in court for your
arraignment, you will be represented by the Public Defender's Office
upon your request if your are indigent. A Deputy Public Defender who
handles arraignments in the court where your case is set will be in
the courtroom to review the files describing the charges against you
along with the police reports. After reviewing the paperwork, this
attorney or a Public Defender paralegal will meet with you to explain
the charges and the legal process. In some cases the Deputy Public
Defender who represents you at this first appearance will handle all
of your case. In other cases you might be represented by more than
one attorney during different proceedings.
The Public Defender's Office represents only those people who cannot
afford to retain their own attorneys. At your arraignment -- whether
you are in custody or not -- the County of Los Angeles may require
that you complete a financial statement regarding your assets to determine
whether you can afford a private attorney. A Public Defender employee
will be available to assist you in completing this form. Even if you
do qualify for our services, the County will request that you pay a
registration fee of $25.00 for the services of the Public Defender's
Office, as is required by State law.
Although not every court handles the issue of financial eligibility
for the Public Defender in the same way, a determination as to whether
you are eligible for our services will be made either by the judge
in the arraignment court or by a Deputy Public Defender in that particular
court. However, no person will ever be denied the assistance of the
Public Defender because of inability to pay the registration fee or
any other cost of appointed counsel.
