A Civil Rights Law Firm in St. Louis

“In the struggle for justice, the only reward is the opportunity to be in the struggle.” – Frederick Douglass

OUR PRACTICE

One of the strongest bonds a lawyer can draw on is the very reason for everyone being in court in the first place — to right a wrong.

Employment Law

We represent employees in claims for employment discrimination, retaliation, whistleblowing, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, compensation, and reasonable accommodation issues.

Education Law

We have handled every aspect of school law and special education. We exclusively represent either parents or organizations serving children or adults with disabilities and including these areas as well.

Civil Rights Law

Our firm is dedicated to opposing all types of discrimination in educational settings and protecting our client’s rights to free speech, liberty, due process, and equal protection of the laws.

OUR ATTORNEYS

People have a pretty good sense of whether they have been treated right or wrong. People have a sense in their stomach, they know it and they should call us. They should do something and we will help them.
