Re: Privacy

Is your photo being used to advertise a product, or in support of a statement that you disagree with? There are two sections in the Civil Rights Law that make it a crime as well as provide a cause of action for invasion of privacy, if that is the situation. You can also obtain an injunction to remove the photo.

If you would like to discuss this with me email or contact my office for an appointment.
