Civil Rights Litigation

Civil rights violations happen every day. The civil rights attorneys at the Philadelphia, PA law firm of Levin & Zeiger LLP understand that civil rights violations can lead to significant damages, the same or even worse than any personal injury. The most common types of civil rights violations include allegations that police and law enforcement personnel exceeded their authority by using excessive force (police brutality), making improper or illegal arrests, or falsely imprisoning a person. Our personal injury lawyers fight other types of civil rights violations, including the right to free speech, the right to assemble freely, the right to due process when you are tried in court, freedom from excessive bails and fines, the right to a speedy and public trial, freedom from unreasonable or unwarranted government intrusions into your home, and equal protection of the laws.

Civil rights cases are complex, and require attorneys who understand the laws and how to aggressively represent their clients. At Levin & Zeiger, LLP, our attorneys will investigate your civil rights case. We consider many factors, including whether your rights have been violated, whether you have been damaged, whether there is evidence of a discriminatory motive, and if there has been a pattern of unfairness against other people.

At Levin & Zeiger, LLP, we have been handling civil rights claims for years, and we take these cases seriously. Many of these cases require immediate investigation, and we know that taking prompt action and obtaining as much documentation as possible can be difference between winning and losing. Our attorneys work together with a team of investigators and support staff to investigate every claim so that we may aggressively and zealously represent our clients and obtain the best possible results.
