Monell Claims Attorneys
Monell claims attorneys sue local governments and municipalities — not just individual officers — for civil rights violations that stem from an unconstitutional policy, a widespread custom, or a failure to properly train or supervise officers. Named after a landmark Supreme Court case, a Monell claim is one of the most powerful legal tools for forcing a government agency to change how it operates and making the institution, not just the individual, pay for what happened.
