Presented by the
National Police Accountability Project, an NLG Project, and
Law 4 Black Lives, this day-long seminar addresses building client and community power through litigation strategies. Panelists will discuss tactical approaches for client representation, including:
- Media work, seizing the narrative, and framing our roles as civil-rights lawyers in context
- Creative uses of declaratory and injunctive relief to create change
- Controversial issues, practical concerns, and community inclusion in settlements
- Crafting robust Monell claims, from pre-litigation to 12(b)(6) motions, discovery, and trial prep strategies
- Flash reviews of novel and critical issues and ideas in pending litigation from across the country
- These interactive discussions will situate our work as police and prison misconduct litigators in the current political moment and in relation to movement work carried out by our clients and communities.
