Yazmin Cader Attorney, Lawyer

Yazmin is a civil rights attorney, state and federal public defender with more than 30 year experience. She has been fighting for racial justice for the longest. She began her career as a judicial law clerk to the Honorable Damon J. Keith of the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals and then through the Honors Program, joined the Employment Litigation Section of the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department. In that role, she litigated employment discrimination claims under Title VII and fought to advance equitable employment opportunities and remove barriers to employment.

In 1995, she began her career as a public defender representing juveniles and adults facing misdemeanor and felony charges, including clients charged with capital offenses and also domestic and international terrorism. She worked as the Public Defender Service for the District of Columbia, the federal defense in the Southern District of New York and the Federal Public Defender (FPD) Office in Los Angeles.

Her time at the Federal Defenders of New York aligned with NYPD’s Stop and Frisk policy, the 9/11 attacks, subsequent passage of the Patriot Act, and escalated monitoring, enforcement and prosecutions targeting Muslims. While her time at FPD Los Angeles coincided with the rise of nativism and the accompanying scapegoating and targeting of immigrant communities. As a public defender, Yasmin witnessed these attacks on people of color across the country first hand. While fighting for justice for her clients, she also developed a sharp analysis of inequities within the criminal legal system.

She was also Chief of Training and deputy federal public defender at the FPD Los Angeles. She created innovative training programs for new and experienced defenders that are still used as models in public defender offices across the country.
