New Jersey Lawyer Protecting Your Civil Rights
The United States Constitution guarantees certain civil rights to all citizens. When these rights are violated, such as when an employee loses a promotion opportunity because she becomes pregnant or when an office worker is not allowed to express a political opinion on the job, an experienced attorney can help bring about justice.
My name is Brian F. Curley. Since 1994, I have handled civil rights cases in both state and federal courts. A fierce litigator, I have argued cases at all levels of the New Jersey courts, from the trial courts through the New Jersey Supreme Court. From my office in Morristown, I represent clients in Morris County and throughout New Jersey.
Comprehensive Civil Rights Representation
I handle a range of civil rights cases, including:
- First Amendment litigation: freedom of religion and speech at schools, workplaces and other settings
- Age, race, gender and religious discrimination in employment and other settings
- Disability rights violations
- Pregnancy discrimination
The New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (LAD) bars discrimination on the basis of many categories, including:
- Race
- Creed
- Color
- National origin
- Nationality
- Ancestry
- Age
- Sex
- Family status
- Marital status
- Domestic partnership status
- Disability
- Military Service
If you have reason to believe you were discriminated against, a lawyer who is skilled in civil rights cases can help you determine whether you have a viable cause of action.
Advanced Education and Recognized Performance
Very few lawyers pursue the Master of Laws (LL.M.) degree. In order to enhance my knowledge of the law, I earned an LL.M. in Trial Advocacy from Temple University James E. Beasley School of Law. This program is routinely ranked as the top for trial advocacy training in the United States.
Further, the Supreme Court of New Jersey certified me as a Civil Trial Attorney. This honor recognizes my legal experience, education, knowledge and skill.
Law & Politics listed me as a Super Lawyer in 2007 and 2009. I was chosen for inclusion in the Super Lawyers, Corporate Counsel Edition in 2008.
