Civil Rights
There are certain special rights that we have, based upon who we are, and what we are, and no one should ever be able to deprive us of these, our divine rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The HaymesLaw team has been at the forefront of civil rights litigation since the formative days of bringing landmark suits and has paved bold new channels for avenging grave wrongdoing.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.” ― Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Beyond bringing justice to aggrieved victims and families, we are staunch advocates for innovations in procedures and equipment that make situations safer for all concerned. For example, wise police chiefs and law enforcement experts generally recognize that many so-called ‘bad shoots’ result from an officer being in poor positioning that excessively elevates his or her fears, thus creating an environment that is greatly enhanced for mishap; occasional situational training has been proven to be insufficient to properly reduce these risks, whereby effectual programs for widespread safety advancement at the local and national levels are long overdue.
