Apply today!
Applications are now being accepted for Assistant Appellate Defenders. Check out the posting and learn why SADO is such a great place to work.
At SADO, we focus on our clients as people and actively work to challenge injustices and disparities in the criminal legal system based on race, class, ability, behavioral health, and other identifying characteristics and statuses. Our office follows a hybrid workplace model that mixes in-office and remote work to offer flexibility and support to staff.
SADO is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We recognize people of color are disproportionately impacted by the criminal legal system and actively seek to employ staff with backgrounds representative of its clients and the defense community. We strongly encourage people of color, people with disabilities, veterans, LGBTQ people, and people directly affected by the criminal legal system to apply. A felony conviction does not prohibit employment at SADO.
