Protecting You When Your Civil Rights Have Been Violated
Many civil rights cases that come to The Law Offices of Michael P. Kelly involve violations of Section 1983, which provides the following:
Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress.
Clients contact us after being arrested for a crime and thrown in jail, only to have the charges quickly dropped. Others were falsely detained with no one reading them their Miranda rights after making accusations of theft or other crimes.
Establishing Your Civil Rights Case
The first step is to get you out of jail and have the charges dismissed. After you are free, we can review your case to determine if your civil rights were violated. We then move forward with a civil lawsuit against the law enforcement department and the specific officer or officers responsible for the civil rights violations. You have rights and those rights need protection. When law enforcement fails to do that, we hold them responsible for their actions.
