Constitutional and civil rights litigation is a complicated area of law, requiring both skill and experience, and successful defense depends on counsel understanding all areas of 42 USC 1983 and its interplay with other laws. Failure to vigorously defend these claims may subject defendants to punitive damages.
Over the years we have defended a wide array of claims to the overwhelming satisfaction of our clients. The majority of claims handled by Bond end in dismissal prior to or at the close of discovery, yet our ability to defend cases at trial is equally impressive.
