Who Handles This
Common Questions
Section 1983 is a federal statute that allows individuals to sue government officials who violate their constitutional rights. We handle these claims at trial and on appeal, including before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.
Police may use reasonable force to make an arrest, but force used to punish, intimidate, or inflict pain may violate your rights. We evaluate the circumstances of your case to determine whether a claim exists.
The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. Where your rights were violated, we can challenge the search and pursue the remedies available to you.
Civil-rights claims are subject to strict deadlines that vary by the type of claim. Because missing a deadline can bar an otherwise valid claim, you should speak with a lawyer promptly. Call 601-957-3101.
