A:
To find legal counsel experienced in handling civil claims against county and state government in California, you can start by searching through legal directories, such as the California State Bar's lawyer referral service. They offer a way to connect with attorneys who have knowledge of cases involving government entities and can review the specifics of your claims. You may also want to consult with a legal aid organization or advocacy groups focused on civil rights or government accountability.
When seeking representation, focus on attorneys with a background in civil litigation, particularly those who have handled cases involving false imprisonment, malicious prosecution, negligence, or constitutional violations. It can be helpful to gather all the documentation related to your claims, including the filings, any rejections, and evidence supporting your assertions of wrongdoing. This will allow an attorney to quickly assess your case and advise on next steps.
You may also want to look for professionals with experience in government misconduct cases involving both local agencies, like the Kern County District Attorney, and state entities, such as the California Office of the State Fire Marshal. Be prepared to discuss potential strategies for addressing the claims that were ignored or rejected, as well as the possibility of seeking damages for economic loss, emotional distress, or other harms.
