When a claim arises under federal law or between actors from different states or nations, the case may be filed in, or removed to, federal court. Our civil litigation practice includes numerous appearances in the U.S. District Courts for the Northern and Southern Districts of Ohio, and in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit.
We have successfully defended claims arising under the First, Fifth, Eighth, and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution and federal statutory claims under the Americans with Disabilities Act, Family Medical Leave Act, Indian Child Welfare Act, Rehabilitation Act, Copyright Act, and others.
Whether the case concerns discrimination in employment, political patronage, activities in policing or detention, enforcement of intellectual property rights, or a plethora of other federal legal issues, we have the personnel and experience to guide you through the unique parameters of a federal court action.
