What does a civil rights lawyer do?

Civil rights law protects people from unlawful treatment by public authorities and, in some areas, by employers, landlords and businesses: discrimination, police misconduct, unlawful detention, voting rights, freedom of speech and assembly, and equal access to public services. Claims may be brought in the courts or before equality and human-rights bodies.

How do I choose a civil rights lawyer?

  1. Ask about experience with claims against the type of authority or organisation involved.
  2. Check the time limits, which for claims against public bodies can be short.
  3. Keep records, photos, the names of witnesses and copies of any complaint already made.
