San Francisco Bay Area Civil Rights Lawyer
At the offices of Mark Martel, Attorney at Law, our firm has a long history of work in the civil rights area. In many challenging cases, we have used the legal system to obtain justice and compensation for our clients. Such cases are not easy. The public—and by extension, the jurors—can often bring pre-conceived notions into the courtroom. We have learned how to overcome these preconceptions through compelling and fact-based presentations. Success is possible through careful research into the facts of the event, knowledge of the law, and passionate advocacy.
Police Misconduct and Justice
We have particular knowledge and experience in the area of police misconduct. Our principal, Mark Martel began in this field on the plaintiff side by fighting for justice on behalf of victims of police misconduct and brutality. This experience showed him the many mistakes that defense lawyers make in these trials, and how to frame and present winning legal arguments in the courtroom.
But, justice belongs to everyone. While we firmly believe that no one should be the victim of police brutality, neither should a police officer be held culpable for a false or exaggerated claim of police misconduct.
Our firm now represents both plaintiffs and defendants in matters involving alleged police misconduct. Our understanding of police misconduct lawsuits from both the plaintiff and defendants side enables us to present the strongest case possible — and enables us to develop successful counter-arguments and rebuttals to opposing counsel.
