CONSTITUTIONAL LAW AND LITIGATION

Our lawyers have many years of experience in constitutional law and civil rights litigation in federal and state courts across the country. We have helped our clients protect their constitutional rights and recover damages when those rights have been violated. We also work hard to promote a better appreciation and recognition of our civil liberties under the law.

Attorney Tom Church is a well-known constitutional lawyer and legal analyst. He often appears on news media to discuss constitutional law and how it applies to the important issues of the day. 

Our constitutional law and litigation practice is primarily focused on the following areas:

  • Voting rights and related litigation related federal and state elections, ballot access, discrimination, and similar issues
  • First Amendment litigation including defamation (libel and slander), protection for whistleblowers who face retaliation, challenging unlawful arrests for participating in non-violent protests, religious rights litigation and appeals.
  • Second Amendment challenges to state gun permit laws, excessive taxation on gun or ammunition purchases, right to carry laws, bans and other regulation
  • Eminent domain and other government overreach litigation relating to government officials who take private property without full and just compensation or who otherwise taken unlawful actions against business or property owners.
  • Section 1983 and Bivens lawsuits to recover damages for intentional civil rights violations by government officials, usually relating to First, Fourth, and Eighth Amendment cases
  • Commerce Clause challenges to statutes enacted by Congress that exceed their authority to regulate interstate commerce

Our firm has the experience necessary to help clients navigate almost any issue relating to constitutional law. We have successfully represented clients in constitutional rights cases and other constitutional law matters in courts across the United States. Our firm has its principal office in Atlanta GA, but we frequently travel to other courts to represent people and organizations in constitutional litigation. Contact our firm if you need assistance with constitutional law and litigation.
