New York Civil Rights Lawyer

Welcome to the New York Civil Rights Law Firm of Leandros A. Vrionedes, P.C., serving clients in Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island, Nassau, and Westchester from our New York City offices. We fight to stop governmental abuses of power and recover compensation for the damages such abuses have caused. This is a firm dedicated to providing the finest legal representation to victims of civil rights violations throughout New York.

Legal Actions Under Section 1983

Civil rights violations are not only illegal; they are unconstitutional. In 1871, Congress enacted 42 U.S.C. section 1983 to give private citizens the right to file a civil lawsuit to stop civil rights violations by the government and people acting under color of law. Today, this law remains as a major force to stop, prevent, remedy and redress governmental abuses.

Civil rights abuses are committed by “state actors,” which includes state officials and government employees, as well as people acting on behalf of the government, often referred to as acting “under color of law.” State actors therefore not only include prosecutors, judges, prison guards and wardens, but also private security guards hired by the state and public utilities or housing authorities which unfairly discriminate on the basis of race or other illegal factors.

Our civil rights law practice focuses on ending and redressing civil rights violations, where individuals are powerless to defend themselves against the authority of the state. With our help and the help of federal law, individuals can stand up to state authority without fear of reprisal and with a fair trial.

At Leandros A. Vrionedes, P.C., we do not tolerate violations of basic human rights, whether committed by state actors or private businesses. Our New York civil rights lawyer office handles civil rights violations as well as unlawful employment discrimination based on race, religion or other protected classes. If you or your family has been the victim of civil rights abuses in New York City and beyond, contact Leandros A. Vrionedes, P.C.
