The court system is the protector of ordinary American citizens against the abuse committed by public officials such as police officers. When government agents act to violate your civil rights, lawyers are available to protect you. Civil rights violations may include:
Police brutality, false arrest, and selective or wrongful prosecution;
Voting and other civil rights violations;
Suppression of free speech and the free exercise of religion;
Violation of ban on cruel and unusual punishment;
High-speed pursuits and chases;
Wrongful and improper confiscation of private property.
