Erie County District Attorney's Office

OFFICE OF THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY OF ERIE COUNTY, NEW YORK

Acting District Attorney Michael J. Keane is the chief law enforcement officer in Erie County.

The District Attorney's Office provides legal advice and investigative support to federal, state and local law enforcement agencies. Throughout the criminal justice process, our Assistant District Attorneys work alongside our partners in law enforcement to investigate crimes, determine whether charges should be filed and prosecute the cases in court. 

Our office is committed to fairly prosecuting the accused and obtaining justice for the victims. In addition to annually litigating approximately 25,000 cases in local, county, state and specialty courts, our prosecutors present cases before the Grand Jury and handle all post-conviction litigation in state and federal appellate courts.
