Defending Your Rights Against All Odds
Prosecuting a civil rights cases can be very complicated, so representation that cares for your well-being matters. At the Law Offices of Gustavo Magaña, we care about you and will represent you in the following cases.
Civil Rights
No matter your situation, no person or authority should ever get away with disrespecting or compromising your civil rights. The Law Office of Gustavo Magaña thinks protecting civil rights is of utmost importance, which is why we passionately represent cases where a person is unfairly targeted or discriminated against by people in positions of power.
Excessive Force
Under most circumstances, police officers are expected to use the minimum amount of force required by the situation. However, suppose a police officer uses repeated physical force (such as punching or kicking). In that case, fires a gun against an unarmed suspect, uses a chokehold, or otherwise threatens a suspect’s physical integrity. It is still possible to present an excessive force claim on individual grounds, especially since what constitutes excessive force may vary from case to case.
Police Brutality
Law enforcement officials have a sworn duty to the people they protect. Unfortunately, an exponential increase in police brutality has been brought to the public eye, and our firm is committed to doing something about it. If you have been a victim of police brutality in any of its forms, the Law Offices of Gustavo Magaña is here for you — we’ll put our all into vindicating your rights.
Racial Profiling
Despite claims of the United States having entered a “post-racial era,” racial profiling remains a constant and issue across the country. People of color face discrimination and risk detentions, interrogations, and baseless searches based on prejudice surrounding their race, ethnicity, and religious practices. Committed to actively fighting discrimination, we put all our effort into claims related to racial profiling since we want our representation to make a difference in the world.
Equal Protection
The Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause requires the United States government to practice equal protection. If an individual believes that their legal rights have been violated, either by the federal or a state government, that person might be able to file an equal protection lawsuit against said governmental body. If you find yourself in this situation, Mr. Magaña will fully represent your case, ensuring that the results are beneficial to you.
