Delaware Civil Rights Lawyers are an attorneys specializing in the field of civil rights and civil rights abuses. If your civil rights have been abused or subverted in any way, we can help.

A Civil Right is an enforceable right or privilege established by state and federal law, which if interfered with by another person gives rise to an action for injury.

Examples of civil rights are: freedoms of speech, press, assembly, the right to vote, freedom from involuntary servitude, and the right to equality in public places.

Discrimination happens when the civil rights of a person are subverted or interfered with because of their membership in a particular group, religion, or class. Statutes have been enacted to prevent discrimination based on an individual's race, sex, religion, age, previous condition of servitude, physical limitation, national origin and in some instances, sexual preference.

The existence of civil rights and liberties are recognized internationally by numerous agreements and declarations. Often, these rights are included in agreements in which nations pledge themselves to the general protection of Human Rights.

Common cases involving Civil Rights and violations thereof, include:

  • Affirmative Action
  • Democracy
  • Feminism
  • Homosexuality Discrimination
  • Liberalism
  • Political Discrimination
  • Human Rights Violations
  • Employment Discrimination
