Civil Rights Violations During Peaceful Protests

To assemble in protest is the right of every American citizen granted by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. Contained within that right is the ability to protest in a safe environment and free from illegal violence perpetrated by law enforcement. During peaceful assembly, citizens should not have to worry about being harmed by those whose job it is to protect and defend them. And unfortunately, a peaceful protest can turn into a dangerous situation in the blink of an eye—just as we saw in May of 2020.

Russell was part of the legal team that prosecuted one of the largest settlements ever against the City of Austin for civil rights violations, and he handles cases on behalf of citizens who are harmed by law enforcement during peaceful assembly and ensures those citizens are fairly and fully compensated for violations that lead to serious injury or even death. If you or a loved one was seriously injured or killed while exercising First Amendment rights, call us now.

Bart LackornAustin, TX

“Russell recently worked on my estate planning documents including my will, medical power of attorney, etc. He made sure I understood each of the documents very clearly and that they 100% matched my wishes before executing everything.”

Teresa LewisAustin, TX

“Russell is awesome! My wife was on hospital bed-rest with our first child and we really wanted to get our estate planning documents in place before his birth. Russell not only came to the hospital to walk us through creating our documents, he returned to the hospital with a notary just days later for an execution ceremony. Russell is a great attorney with tons of knowledge...”

Nick ShiffertAustin, TX

Randall LopezAustin, TX

“Russell completed fairly complex business documents for the transfer of our company. He was thorough, accurate and timely. I can not write enough as to how pleased I was with his service and expertise.”

Don RichieAustin, TX

“Russell Frost is the epitome of excellence in legal services. During the last six months, he facilitated a commercial real estate matter for me, that was very daunting. His promptness and attention to detail exceeded my expectations. I felt that my case was handled with the highest priority. The personal service I received made feel safe and secure during the entire process which gave me great piece of mind, and let me almost remove myself from the situation knowing that I was being represented by Russell Frost. I highly recommend Russell Frost if you are in the need of legal representation.”

Lisa KundeSeguin, TX

“Russell assisted with a case where our landlord had been foreclosed on, and we were being asked to pay several different parties. He was very responsive and helpful in getting us out of our current lease. We were able to get out of that lease, and also get 23 free days to move to our new apartment. Our case wasn't a focus of Russell's, but he was very proactive in finding out the details around our situation and continued until he was able to resolve our issues.”

“Russell does great work! He has already helped me form a LLC and take care of estate planning. He gets work done!”

Josh BakerPflugerville, Texas

“I have seen Russell in action in federal court as opposing counsel and was so impressed by his skills that I subsequently began joint- venturing cases with him. He is a top notch attorney and any client would lucky to have him on their side.”

Drew GibbsCarlson Law Firm

“Litigation is in and of itself unpleasant, but Russell Frost’s professionalism and thoroughness of representation coupled with calmness and even humor, made my experience as pleasant as it could possibly be. He is down to earth and very easy to work and did a wonderful job of explaining each step of the process as the litigation moved along. He has confidence without the arrogance, unlike many other attorneys. I have had the unfortunate opportunity to retain two other local attorney in the past and I do not have one good word to share about either. I believe Russell did his best to represent me and after all was said and done, I was actually glad Russell got some of my money instead of the roofing company. I highly recommend Russell Frost and would definitely use his services again!”
