Civil Rights

Have your civil rights been violated? Are you a victim of police misconduct? Misconduct can come in many forms—wrongful arrests, unlawful taking of property, excessive force in the form of police brutality and unjustified police shootings.

Kidd & Urling is ready to help. We believe in our Constitution and the rights that it guarantees. Rights that, too often, are infringed by the government and law enforcement officials, those who have sworn to uphold the Constitution.

The civil rights granted by the United States Constitution come primarily from the following:

  • The Fourth Amendment: Protects you against illegal searches and seizures and police brutality. We have been successful in handling these civil rights cases, as well as unlawful arrest.
  • The First Amendment: Guarantees freedom of speech and free exercise of religion. We believe that the Government and other State actors like Public Universities should not squelch the expression of ideas. We are here to help you to prevent this from occurring.

Kidd & Urling is committed to helping you secure damages for civil rights violations. We look forward to talking with you!
