NearmeLawyers.com offers two distinct packages: a complimentary option and a Featured Package. The Featured Package, priced at $69 monthly, provides lawyers with enhanced visibility, priority in listings, broader practice area coverage, and a standout profile position to boost their online presence and draw potential clients. On the other hand, the NearmeLawyers.com directory, available at no charge, lists basic information about licensed attorneys, including their name, address, year of birth, gender, law school, and year of licensure. Lawyers have the opportunity to augment their profiles with personal and professional details, but they are solely responsible for the accuracy of this additional information. NearmeLawyers.com does not validate the correctness of these details and offers no assurance as to their accuracy, neither explicitly nor implicitly. The responsibility for the accuracy of this extra information does not fall on NearmeLawyers.com, its employees, or its agents. It’s important to note that NearmeLawyers.com is not a lawyer referral service.

About
A lawyer specializing in civil rights law protects and promotes the fundamental human rights and freedoms guaranteed to every individual by law. Civil rights lawyers focus on cases involving discrimination, harassment, and violations of constitutional rights, such as freedom of speech, religion, and the press.
Some common issues that a civil rights lawyer may handle include police brutality, discrimination in employment or housing, hate crimes, and voting rights violations. These lawyers may work for nonprofit organizations, government agencies, or private law firms and may represent individuals, groups, or organizations in civil rights lawsuits.
To become a civil rights lawyer, one must complete a law degree and pass the bar exam. It is also helpful to gain experience in related fields, such as social justice or public interest law, and to develop a strong understanding of civil rights law and its history.
