Government & Civil Rights

Our attorneys are accomplished in all types of civil litigation, including civil rights complaints against government entities.

In the civil rights arena, McManis Faulkner lawyers represent both individual and corporate plaintiffs, whose rights have been violated in such areas as discrimination, excessive force, false arrest, contracts clause violations, and takings. We possess years of experience advocating for clients against government entities in both state and federal court, and have tried cases under Title 42 United States Code Section 1983, the Fair Employment and Housing Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and other state and federal statutes.
