── Our Civil Rights Lawyers Can Help You Fight for Justice
In the United States, you have inalienable rights, including the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. So, when sheriff’s departments, police departments, jails, prisons, departments of social services, and other government entities trample those rights, you also have the right to fight for justice – and we can help. At Kyle J. White Law Firm, we have the skills and experience needed to handle your civil rights case from start to finish. Our Anderson lawyers will fight for justice on your behalf and help you recoup your damages, so you can move forward after such a distressing incident occurs.
── Your Civil Rights in the United States
While living in the United States, you have many civil rights, including freedom of speech, the right to be free from unlawful arrest or prosecution, the right to bodily integrity, the right to be free from government conduct that shocks the conscience, the right to be free from excessive force, the right to be free from unlawful searches and seizures, and the right to due process. When these rights are violated, you may have a claim against the violator of your rights under the Civil Rights Act, specifically 42 USC Section 1983. Beyond that, you have the right to protection from discrimination if you’re part of a protected class.
Protected classes in the US include:
- Race
- Age
- Gender
- Sexual orientation
- Disability
Any practices, policies, or even laws that discriminate against those classes effectively violate your civil rights. You can then ask the courts to make you whole again by compensating you for any damages that occurred as a result of those violations.
If you believe your civil rights have been violated, Kyle J. White Law Firm is here to help. Reach out today for expert guidance on how to seek justice and compensation for those wrongs.
