R.C. Brown asked:


A family member did 3 years in prison, and then the Supreme Court overturned the convictions, saying he did nothing criminal. What area of law would I find an attorney to sue the state? In other words, would I get a personal injury lawyer….civil litigation….criminal?

      I would go with a general civil litigation lawyer. They would be better at valuing the case.
