Civil Rights & Constitutional Law

One of the more complex areas of the law that we practice is Constitutional and Civil Rights law.

This includes a wide array of civil actions that include:

42 U.S.C. § 1983 Cases (protecting the rights of individuals who are threatened by government abuse of power).
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act (a federal statute prohibiting discrimination based on race in public schools and universities).
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act (a federal statute prohibiting discrimination based on race, religion, sex, gender, ethnicity or national origin in the workplace).
Title IX of the Civil Rights Act (a federal statute prohibiting discrimination based on gender in public schools and universities).
Fair Housing Act (a federal statute that prohibits the denial of access to housing based on disability, race, religion, sex, gender, ethnicity or national origin).
RLUIPA (the “Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act” is a federal statute that protects religious liberty in two ways: a) by limiting the ability of governments to control land use when it imposes a substantial burden on the free exercise of religion; and b) by protecting the free exercise right of institutionalized persons).
