When police officers intentionally falsify evidence to arrest someone they believe is guilty, it’s usually "an ends-justify-the-means approach," says Doug Lieb. He and trial partners David Lebowitz and Alyssa Isidoridy challenge that approach in their civil rights practice, recently winning $7.6 million for a client who spent 30 years wrongfully imprisoned. With hosts Ben Gideon and Rahul Ravipudi, the guests reveal their collaborative case vetting process, the power of federal fee-shifting statutes, and why they choose federal court for civil rights litigation despite its challenges.
