Civil Rights
Vigorously defending fundamental rights and liberties against infringement by government entities or private individuals.
Civil rights are the bedrock of a free and just society. At Ringo Legal, we believe that no one is above the law, especially those sworn to uphold it. We specialize in holding government entities, police departments, and public officials accountable when they violate the constitutional rights of individuals.
What is a Section 1983 Claim?
The primary tool for civil rights enforcement is 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This federal statute allows individuals to sue state and local government officials for the "deprivation of any rights." Because these cases are complex, you need an attorney who understands the nuances of constitutional law. Read our guide on Qualified Immunity to understand the biggest hurdle in these cases.
Our Civil Rights Services Include:
- Police Misconduct: Excessive force, false arrest, and coerced confessions.
- Jail & Prison Neglect: Failure to provide medical care and inhumane conditions.
- Voter Suppression: Challenging laws that disenfranchise voters.
- Due Process Violations: Fighting against arbitrary government action.
If you believe your rights have been violated, time is often of the essence. Contact us today for a comprehensive evaluation of your case.
