Q. I have prosthetic leg, sandals, flip flops don’t stay on my foot. I wore sneakers into sauna and was kicked out. Rights?

January 21, 2025

A: You do have rights which might be protected under the Unruh civil rights act.

You should search for civil rights lawyers in the Bay Area, or in the county where you live.

I suggest you prepare a chronological statement of the facts, identify all the witnesses, and what they will likely say, and if you have any any documents or photographs, make sure you preserve those.

Most good lawyers will be looking to see what your actual, out-of-pocket damages are. This is usually a good measuring stick to determine what the value of a case is. It may be a close call to determine whether or not you have a case worth pursuing, because these kinds of cases can be vigorously defended. A lot of lawyers will refuse to take cases unless there are significant out-of-pocket damages incurred by the client, or significant injuries which are provable. But don't let that deter from seeking legal advice, however. Do not delay, because there are strict time limits which can apply to cases like this.

One thing you can do on your own, is to go to the California civil rights department and file a claim for discrimination against the business establishment. You can reach them at this website: https://calcivilrights.ca.gov/

Once you navigate to the website, scroll down to discrimination at business establishments, and click that button to get the information which may be of assistance to you. Then follow the links so you can start the complaint process. You won't need a lawyer to do this, and the process is explained so you will know what to do to protect your rights. The Department will usually let you know whether you have a claim worth pursuing. ... Read More

Q. My son was subjected to an illegal search and seizure of his person and property and then illegally arrested.

January 19, 2025

A: You need to direct your inquiry to lawyers who are admitted to practice in the state of Florida, not California. Not all California lawyers are qualified to give opinions to Florida residents who have legal issues similar to what you describe. It is best to post your question on a forum where lawyers in your state can give you the best legal advice.

Q. at my last court hearing my attorney sexually assaulted my wife and I want to sue him and file charges against him

January 17, 2025

A: That sounds terrible, and I would love to help you, but I'm a California lawyer and not admitted to practice law in Florida. You need a lawyer who is admitted to the practice of law in your state. I only know one lawyer who may have practiced in your state, but his practice is limited to criminal defense matters.

You can easily search for attorneys in the area where you live, and I suggest you do that. But the last I checked, Miami is not in California, but you posted your inquiry in the place for California lawyers.
