The Mizner Law Firm is an Erie law firm which fights for what is right and its lawyers fight hard. It battles everyday to make sure that people whose civil rights are violated, or who suffer serious injuries receive not just a measure of justice, but complete justice. Nothing else is acceptable.
Few lawyers in Pennsylvania are as passionate about protecting civil rights, or have represented more citizens in federal civil rights lawsuits, than John F. Mizner, the founder of the Mizner Law Firm. Attorney Mizner is honored to fight to protect the rights of people from all walks of life, including claims for violation of the free speech clause of the First Amendment, unlawful search and seizure claims in violation of the Fourth Amendment, excessive force and failure to protect claims in violation of the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments, cruel and unusual punishment claims in violation of the Eighth Amendment, deliberate indifference to serious medical needs claims in violation of the Eighth Amendments, claims for violation of the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, and violations of the American with Disabilities Act and Rehabilitation Act.
