Prison Injury Lawyers
Fighting for Victims of Prison Abuse & Misconduct
People who are convicted of crimes and sent to prison retain many of their rights. Among these rights is the right to basic medical care, as well as the right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment, abuse, and assault. Unfortunately, these rights are often ignored by prison guards, correctional officers, wardens, and others responsible for ensuring the rights of the imprisoned are upheld.
If you or someone you love was injured while in prison or did not receive prompt, adequate medical care while incarcerated, you could have grounds for a personal injury case. At Fischer Redavid PLLC, we handle complex prison injury cases, including claims involving prison medical malpractice, correctional officer abuse, cruel and unusual punishment, and more. Our prison injury attorneys believe in standing up for the rights of all people and are committed to holding negligent parties accountable for the harm they cause.

Your Rights While Incarcerated
If you have been convicted of a crime and sentenced to prison time, this does not mean that you do not have any rights. In fact, incarcerated persons are entitled to several important rights.
Among these rights are the right to:
- Free speech
- Religious practice
- Humane conditions
- Prompt and adequate medical care
- Mental health care
- Nutrition
- Work (with some exceptions)
- Freedom from cruel or unusual punishment
- Freedom from sexual harassment, abuse, and discrimination
Violations of these rights constitute violations of your civil rights. If you are injured or suffer new or worsened medical conditions as a result of inhumane conditions, lack of medical or mental health care, poor nutrition, or other rights violations, you could be entitled to financial compensation.
