Practice Area

Civil Rights 100%

I specialize in litigation challenging unlawful conditions of confinement of prisoners, juveniles, jail detainees, and immigration detainees. Almost all of my litigation involves class actions seeking injunctions to end conditions that violate the law. I currently am involved in class actions challenging conditions for prisoners in MIchigan, jail detainees at the Baltimore Jail, and juveniles in the DC system. I am the former director the ACLU National Prison Project.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
