Central Illinois First Amendment Protection — Nicoara & Steagall

Few things are more important than our constitutional rights. A violation of the First Amendment is an attack on everyone, especially in a democracy. Whenever freedom of speech is attacked or infringed upon, vigorous protection of our First Amendment rights is not an option. It is absolutely essential.

Your constitutional right to free speech is too important to give up without a fight — protect your rights and contact our Peoria, Illinois, law office.

At Nicoara & Steagall, we represent private individuals, students, public employees and others who've been denied this most basic right by employers, school districts and other government or institutional authorities. Civil rights attorney Richard L. Steagall has been litigating First Amendment cases and appealing decisions in the state and federal courts of Illinois for 30 years. He has an especially strong background in federal cases and devotes approximately half of his practice to appeals.

Although it may be difficult, it is important to remember that when you stand up to fight for your rights, you're actually doing much more. In actuality, you're protecting the rights of everyone you know too. Mr. Steagall's experience with First Amendment protection will help.

As important is the fact that, here, your case will not be just another case among dozens or hundreds of others. We have made a conscious decision to remain small and to manage our caseloads so that we can give each client and their case the time and attention it needs.
