  • Freedom from Unlawful Searches & Seizures – Protected by the Fourth Amendment.
  • Protection Against Police Misconduct – Including excessive force and wrongful arrests.
  • Employment & Housing Discrimination – Protected under federal anti-discrimination laws.

Common Civil Rights Violations:

  • Unlawful Arrests & Detention – Being arrested without probable cause.
  • Excessive Force by Law Enforcement – Injuries or harm caused by police brutality.
  • Discrimination – Based on race, gender, disability, or religion.
