Many LGBT attorneys work for federal government enforcement agencies – whether the Department of Justice, FBI, SEC, or others. Working in this field can present a host of challenges, including embedded homophobia, transphobia, and sexism in law enforcement, work with diverse judges and juries, and general issues working in a complex and difficult field. This workshop will address issues in government enforcement careers for LGBT attorneys, including coming out, affinity groups, and working under management that may change with the political winds.
