Municipal Liability
The number of claims against municipalities, as well as a variety of governmental agencies and employees, has increased dramatically over the years. Lawsuits seeking relief and redress from cities, towns and their agencies, as well as the employees of these agencies, have prompted Damon Morey to focus on and establish a practice group that is devoted to this type of litigation.
The firm’s attorneys have defended various counties, cities and townships, school districts, police departments and governmental agencies, as well as individual employees of state agencies. The firm has also represented cities, towns and agencies that are funded by municipalities.
Damon Morey attorneys have defended lawsuits initiated by citizens for malicious prosecution, defamation, wrongful termination, wrongful condemnation, failure to provide necessary services, sex discrimination, equal protection, due process, Title VII, race discrimination, ADA and age discrimination, as well as matters brought under federal and state legislation and local ordinances.
Damon Morey offers counseling and representation as well as educational programs to state and local agencies and their employees, business managers and public officials to assist them in managing and reducing the risk of lawsuits brought against them.
