Your constitutional rights are the ultimate guarantee of your liberty and dignity. When government entities, law enforcement officials, or powerful institutions abuse their authority, the resulting violation can be devastating. At Lucio Law, we are relentless in upholding the constitutional and statutory rights of Civil Rights Victims across Texas. We are committed to exposing misconduct, holding those in power accountable, and securing maximum justice and compensation.
Taking on a governmental agency requires an attorney with specialized knowledge, vast resources, and an unwavering commitment to litigation. Our firm provides the essential legal competence needed to pursue claims under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and other civil rights statutes.
• Accountability Focus: We understand that a civil rights victory not only compensates the victim but also forces institutions to change unconstitutional policies and practices, protecting the public.
• Complex Litigation Experience: We possess the expertise required to navigate the complex immunities and procedural defenses often raised by government defendants, maximizing the client's chance of success.
• State-Wide Command: We apply deep familiarity with federal and state civil rights laws throughout Texas, providing aggressive legal counsel regardless of the jurisdiction.
Our competence is demonstrated by the freedom and financial security we have secured for those whose fundamental rights were violated:
• $3,200,000 Verdict (Wrongful Imprisonment): We secured a substantial verdict against those responsible, providing long-deserved justice and financial recovery for a victim's years of lost freedom.
• $1,000,000 Settlement (Jail Death): We achieved a significant settlement for a family, holding the detention facility accountable for the negligence and systemic failures that led to the wrongful death of a loved one in custody.
We handle complex civil rights matters, applying precise legal strategies to secure justice when your constitutional protections are ignored:
• Police Misconduct and Excessive Force: When an officer uses unnecessary or lethal force during an arrest, leading to a severe injury or wrongful death, we pursue claims against the individual officer and the department for civil rights violations.
• Wrongful Arrest and Malicious Prosecution: If law enforcement fabricates evidence or continues prosecution without probable cause, resulting in unlawful detainment or loss of reputation, we aggressively pursue damages for the resulting harm.
• Prisoner Rights and Jail Death: When a detention facility fails to provide adequate medical care, ignores known risks of suicide, or subjects inmates to cruel and unusual punishment, we hold the facility and staff liable for the resulting injury or death.
• First Amendment Violations: If a state university or public employer retaliates against a client for exercising their right to free speech, we litigate to stop the suppression and secure compensation for lost employment or educational opportunities.
• Due Process and Equal Protection: When a government agency acts arbitrarily or discriminates against a client based on a protected status (race, gender, religion), we challenge the decision to restore the client's fundamental legal rights.
Civil rights litigation is subject to strict statutes of limitations and governmental immunity defenses. You must act quickly to preserve your right to file a claim.

Yes, you can. Lucio Law gives you a free, private talk about your case. The attorney will look at your situation, explain your legal choices clearly, and tell you the best way to fight for you.
Don’t let money stop you from seeing a doctor. Getting the right medical help is the most important thing. We can discuss options, and in accident cases, your medical costs are usually part of the money we recover for you later.
For accident and rights cases, we don’t get paid unless you win money. This is called a “contingency fee.” For crime cases, you pay a fee upfront.
A trial attorney is crucial when you can’t settle your case outside of court. We are ready to take your fight to a judge and jury. Having an experienced trial team means we are prepared to get you the best result, especially in serious cases.
