Civil Rights and Police Misconduct

We Will Stand Up for Your Civil Rights

The right to work; the right to live where you want; the right to be treated equally under the law without regard to your race, religion, gender, ethnicity or sexual orientation: These valuable rights are fundamental to a free society, but what if they are violated?

Civil rights cases are the most important cases there are — without them there would be no way to fight discrimination, prejudice and injustice. An experienced civil rights attorney will stand up for your rights. At Walston Cross, our lawyers are committed to vindicating the rights of the people. The work we and other civil rights attorneys do helps not only our individual clients, but for all the people who are treated more fairly as a result of the legal outcome.

If you are a victim of discrimination, we can answer your questions and help you take legal action. Contact us today online or by phone at 415.956.9200 for a free initial consultation. We serve clients in the San Francisco Bay Area and throughout the state of California.

Have Your Civil Rights Been Violated?

At Walston Cross, we have extensive experience dealing with complex civil rights litigation cases. Our experience in these matters allows us to quickly identify violations and use a combination of legal strategies to best pursue our clients' interests. The scope of our civil rights practice includes:

Attorney Gregory Walston practiced civil-rights litigation as a Deputy Attorney General in the California Department of Justice. He has successfully argued hundreds of civil-rights actions, and acted as lead counsel on numerous federal jury trials and other significant civil-rights actions. He has lectured on civil- rights litigation at Duke University Law School and the University of San Diego Law School and teaches civil-rights litigation to practicing attorneys through State Bar sponsored continuing legal education courses.

Policing the Police

Police perform a valuable function in our lives, but they wield considerable power, and that power can be abused. If you feel that you have been the victim of police misconduct, we can answer your questions and help you explore your legal options. You may also want to look at our criminal defense page if you have been arrested or accused of committing a crime.
