Civil rights lawyers in Washington
Civil rights cases ask whether a government office or another defendant violated a constitutional or statutory right. They are not the same as the criminal defense of the person who was arrested. These offices handle those claims. These offices are in Washington, and each one is listed from the firm's own site.

Common questions
Does the criminal case have to end first?
Often a civil claim about an arrest waits on the criminal case, because the outcome can affect the civil one. Ask before you file anything.
Are public defenders listed here?
