Civil Rights

We can help you to recover compensation for your civil rights having been violated. If you were discriminated against because of your race, religion, age, and so forth, then we can work diligently on your behalf to help you recover financial compensation for what you’ve had to go through. Moreover, in many of these cases, the defendant (the person or entity that violated your rights) commits to making changes so that they no longer engage in illegal practices, discrimination, and the like.

We help clients whose cases involve equality, discrimination, human rights, and freedom. 

Police brutality and workplace discrimination are, unfortunately, some of the most common forms of civil rights violations. Employment-based discrimination or segregation on account of race, sex, religion, or natural origin is illegal as stated by the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Additionally, there are further protections related to age, potential disability, sexual orientation, and more. 

If a government agency has discriminated against you, you should reach out to us for a free case evaluation as quickly as possible. If you were falsely imprisoned, falsely arrested, or even stopped by the police on false pretenses, for example, then your civil rights may very well have been violated. 

There are many other cases that a civil rights attorney can help with. Many of our clients have been discriminated against by landlords, for example. 1968’s Fair Housing Act was intended to provide fair access to housing, yet, all too often, leasing offices, home sellers, landlords and others illegally discriminate. 

Too often, in civil rights cases, the wronged party worries about retaliation. Maybe they’re afraid of their employer firing them, police coming after them, a school that discriminates against their child making day-to-day routines all that more difficult on your child, and so forth. We can help to protect you. 

For example, you can’t be fired because you sued your employer, nor can they do so on account of you having beaten them in a case. We understand how challenging these cases can be and we will be by your side every step of the way. 

Many whose civil rights have been violated may not be in a position of power or have great wealth. We work on contingency. That way, you don’t have to pay us “out of pocket.” Then, our compensation will come out of your eventual settlement. You, quite literally, have nothing to lose by reaching out to us for a free case evaluation.

Civil rights cases can be challenging for many reasons. That said, these cases are meaningful and worth pursuing. Whether it’s through representing everyday people whose rights were violated or large groups who were discriminated against en masse, we can help you to not just recover the compensation you deserve, but to affect real change.
