Basic Differences Between Civil Rights and Civil Liberties

In general, civil liberties are the freedoms we enjoy daily which are guaranteed under the constitution. Some examples of civil liberties are freedom of speech and the press which are addressed by the 1st amendment to the constitution. Other important civil liberties are contained in the 4th and 14th amendments. Under the 4th amendment, we are afforded liberty against unlawful searches and seizures. This means that Police Officers cannot search our person or home without probable cause.
What Does a Police Brutality Lawyer Do?

Police Brutality lawyers ensure the rights of police brutality victims are protected. Our law firm does this in several ways. First, we assure the victim that we will hold those responsible for their injuries by accurately identifying the perpetrators. Next, we place the perpetrators of these unlawful acts on notice that they’ll be held responsible for their abuse of authority and brutality. We then endeavor to obtain maximum recovery for our clients who are victims of police brutality.
