CIVIL RIGHTS

Civil Rights

State and federal law provide you with the right to freedom, safety and the ability to live comfortably. Sometimes others violate these rights. It could be a politician, a police officer, an organization, or even a hate group. If someone violates your rights, you can sue that person or entity. Civil rights cases are often complex. The civil rights attorneys at Bracy Hawkins Law have experience in civil rights laws, including the documents that give us our freedom.

Your civil rights include the following:

• Freedom from discrimination of race, color, religion, and sex.
• The freedom to assemble.
• Freedom of speech and religion.
• The right to petition your government.
• The right to due process.

A civil rights lawyer at Bracy Hawkins Law can help if you suffer workplace discrimination, wage violations, police brutality, sexual assault, are a victim of excessive force, human trafficking, cruel and unusual punishment, and hate crimes. You also have the right to be free of illegal searches and seizures. Finally, you have certain rights if you are a whistleblower.

If you feel your rights have been violated, contact a civil rights lawyer at Bracy Hawkins Law for a case evaluation.
