Civil rights and litigation advocacy

Civil Rights & Police Misconduct

Your Rights Were Violated.
We Work to Hold Them Accountable.

When government agencies and law enforcement abuse their power, you need an attorney who will prepare your case carefully and hold them accountable in court.

Prepared for Court.
Focused on Your Rights.

At Sheikhly Law, we pair relentless advocacy with courtroom experience from Kaith Sheikhly’s time as a judicial law clerk.

THE SHEIKHLY DIFFERENCE

Clerk's Insight

As a Former Judicial Law Clerk for the Multnomah County Circuit Court, our founder worked alongside more than thirty judges. He saw how cases are briefed, argued and decided from the bench side, and we bring that perspective to how we prepare every case.

Trial-Ready Advocacy

When government agencies and insurance companies have teams of lawyers working against you, you need representation that prepares every case for trial, not just for settlement. We take on police departments, agencies, and insurers with the same preparation we'd bring to a jury.
