Los Angeles Civil Rights Attorney
Your civil rights protect you from mistreatment by the government, police, employers, and other powerful institutions. When those rights are violated — through police brutality, wrongful arrest, racial discrimination, or other injustices — you have legal options.
Civil rights cases are not just about compensation. They’re about justice, accountability, and making sure it doesn’t happen to someone else.
Civil Rights and the Law
Under federal and California law, you may be able to bring a lawsuit if you’ve experienced:
- Police misconduct or brutality
- Wrongful arrest or detention
- Racial profiling
- Unlawful searches and seizures
- Retaliation for exercising free speech
- Discrimination based on race, gender, religion, disability, or sexual orientation
- Violations of your rights while incarcerated
Civil rights claims can be filed against:
- Police departments
- Government agencies
- Correctional facilities
- Individual officers
- Public schools and employers
Civil Rights Cases Are Challenging
Civil rights lawsuits are difficult to win — especially when they involve government employees or institutions. That’s why you need a knowledgeable attorney like David Olan to build your case.
He works closely with:
- Constitutional law experts
- Medical professionals
- Independent investigators
- Former law enforcement advisors
These cases require a deep understanding of both federal and state civil rights laws, and the courage to stand up to institutions with strong legal protections.
Types of Damages You Can Recover
- Medical expenses
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional trauma
- Lost income or job opportunities
- Damage to reputation
- Punitive damages (in cases of extreme misconduct)
- Attorney’s fees and court costs
The Cost of a Civil Rights Attorney
You don’t need to worry about affording legal help. Olan Law often handles civil rights cases on a contingency basis. In many cases, if you win, the court may require the government to pay your legal fees.
