Civil Rights

Civil rights law is our specialty and we represent individual clients, as well as groups (in class actions) of people whose rights have been violated.

Disability Rights

More than 56 million Americans have some form of disability, and we make sure that those with disabilities have the same opportunities as everyone else.

Personal Injury

If you or someone in your family has been injured due to someone’s negligence, you deserve compensation for any related costs and personal suffering it caused.
