Prisoner Medical Rights Violation

Summary

Prisoners have a right to adequate medical care under the Eighth Amendment. If a prisoner is denied medical treatment, contacting the prisons healthcare provider or warden is a first step. If that fails, filing a grievance is recommended. For persistent issues, consulting a local civil rights attorney is advisable. In Conway, Arkansas, Lasker Law Firm can assist with such cases.
