CIVIL RIGHTS
When your rights are violated, you need an attorney who knows how to fight back with precision, strategy, and courage. Civil rights cases are complex and often intimidating, but you do not have to face them alone. I take a hands-on approach to every case and treat each client with the seriousness their situation deserves. I represent individuals whose constitutional rights were violated by law enforcement, correctional officers, state agencies, and other government actors.
What We Handle
-
Unlawful Detention and Wrongful Arrest
When someone is detained or arrested without lawful cause, I move quickly to protect their rights and build a strong record of government misconduct.
-
Excessive Force and Police Misconduct
Cases involving the use of unnecessary or unreasonable force, unlawful searches, unconstitutional home entry, or harassment.
-
Jail and Detention Abuse
Serious neglect, medical inattention, unsafe conditions, and punitive treatment in jails, prisons, or ICE detention centers.
-
Retaliation and Due Process Violations
When government actors punish, threaten, or undermine individuals for exercising their rights.
-
Section 1983 Actions
Federal civil rights lawsuits that hold government officials accountable for violating constitutional protections.
-
Excessive Delays and Denials in Government Processes
Including improper records handling, failure to follow required procedures, and harmful administrative errors.
OUR APPROACH
Civil rights cases require more than legal knowledge. They demand courage, strategy, and relentless preparation. My approach is simple and effective:
• I listen carefully to your story
• I gather evidence with precision
• I build a clear timeline of government misconduct
• I prepare your case myself
• I stay involved from the first call to the final decision
Every civil rights case is personal. When the government crosses the line, I push back with discipline and focus.
Federal Victories
We measure success differently.
