Howard Friedman listed in The Best Lawyers in America® 2024 for Civil Rights Law
Howard was selected by his peers for inclusion in the 2024 edition of The Best Lawyers in America® for his achievements in Civil Rights Law. Howard has successfully handled civil rights cases for clients with complaints of police misconduct, police brutality, false arrest, wrongful conviction, illegal strip searches, violations of prisoners’ rights, and more.
Howard also brings cases under the Massachusetts Public Records Law when agencies such as police departments and district attorneys’ offices refuse to provide public records. Public records are a powerful tool for police accountability. For example, public access to policing data helps individuals and communities identify systemic problems in police departments and demand change.
