NJ Civil Rights Claims Lawyer

Has the Government Violated Your Civil Rights?

Our employment law and civil rights lawyers represent employees and citizens whose rights, as protected by the United States, and New Jersey Constitutions, have been violated. For example, we represent police officers, firefighters, school teachers, municipal employees, and other individuals who have been the victims of retaliation because they exercised their rights to freedom of speech, freedom of association or freedom of religion, or who have been denied due process or equal protection of law.

It can be a violation of your rights under the First Amendment if the federal, state or local government treats you differently because of your speech on a matter of public concern, because of whom you chose to associate with, due to your political affiliation or because you file a lawsuit against the state or local government. Other civil rights claims include false arrest, excessive use of force, unlawful search and seizure, and violations of your others rights under the First Amendment, Fourth Amendment, Fifth Amendment and Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution
