Types of Civil Rights Cases We Handle
Our law firm can assist with a variety of cases involving civil rights violations. You can contact us for help when dealing with:
Inadequate Healthcare in the Correctional System
The correctional system typically (but not always) will contract healthcare services to a third-party organization. These organizations often bid to earn contracts that will make them responsible for providing healthcare and mental health treatment to inmates and detainees at a particular facility.
Unfortunately, there is often deficient training and hiring, which leads to constitutionally deficient care for those incarcerated. We have handled cases primarily concerning mental health treatment in the correctional system.
If you or a family member received improper care through the correctional system, you can turn to a civil rights attorney from our firm for help.
Police Brutality
Police brutality has been central in the media recently with the arrest and death of individuals like George Floyd. Police officers have an obligation to follow policies and rules that ensure the safety of citizens.
Victims of police brutality may experience severe injuries. Sometimes, police misconduct leads to a wrongful death. Our team can assist your family in this situation and discuss options like a wrongful death claim.
Wrongful Convictions
One of the biggest tragedies in our justice system is the incarceration of innocent individuals. It happens more than we like to accept and is an unfortunate reality. In Maryland, there is now an administrative process by which wrongfully incarcerated individuals can obtain some sort of compensation.
Thanks to the Walter Lomax Act of 2021, you can now use a standardized formula to address this situation. While this will never give someone back their time lost, it can help them move forward.
Our team may assist you if you experience a wrongful conviction after a false arrest, illegal search, or other form of unfair treatment.
Potential Results of Your Civil Rights Claim
A Baltimore civil rights lawyer can help you hold the person or entity responsible for violating your rights accountable for their actions. A successful outcome for your legal claim may have several results. For example, the court system may order the liable party to:
- Compensate you for your medical expenses
- Pay punitive damages
- Adhere to an injunction that stops them from doing specific actions
Additionally, in some cases, the court may issue a statement that, after investigating your claim, the legal system determined the defendant was wrong. We can help you take the appropriate legal action for your situation, so contact us today.
