Civil Rights Attorneys in Harrisburg, York and the Surrounding Areas of Pennsylvania
The United States Constitution, in conjunction with other federal laws, provides each citizen with a number of federally protected civil rights. State or federal employers or other government and law enforcement officials have the duty to protect these rights. If these rights are violated, you may have a civil rights claim. Some of the way in which your rights may be violated include, but are not necessarily limited to:
- Retaliation for speaking out on matters of public concern (whistleblower)
- Denying you due process under the law
- Illegally searching your property or your person
- Using excessive force against you
- Falsely arresting or imprisoning you
- Maliciously prosecuting you
- Discriminating against you on the basis of race, religion, age or gender.
- Employment discrimination.
