The Equal Protection Clause of the 14th amendment of the U.S. Constitution prohibits states from denying any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. See U.S. Const. amend. XIV. In other words, the laws of a state must treat an individual in the same manner as others in similar conditions and circumstances. A violation would occur, for example, if a state prohibited an individual from entering into an employment contract because he or she was a member of a particular race. The equal protection clause is not intended to provide "equality" among individuals or classes but only "equal application" of the laws. The result, therefore, of a law is not relevant so long as there is no discrimination in its application. By denying states the ability to discriminate, the equal protection clause of the Constitution is crucial to the protection of civil rights. See Civil Rights and Discrimination.

Choosing a Lawyer

Always find out how much many similar cases the lawyer has taken up:
The legal profession is very vast. Lawyers take up cases of varying nature and may not have a good working knowledge of the nature of certain cases. You must speak to the lawyer and find out whether he/she has actually taken up cases of a similar/same nature. After all, what would a divorce lawyer know about personal injury cases. Make sure that the lawyer takes up at least 60% cases of a similar nature/ similar field of law.

Find a lawyer with whom you are comfortable:
Your interaction with your lawyer will require you to shed a lot of information about yourself and others around you. Choose a lawyer who you are comfortable with, and whom you can trust personally as well as professionally. You must have confidence in your lawyer and work with him/her to bring out the important points in your case. If you are not comfortable talking to your lawyer, you could be withdrawing certain information that might prove crucial to the case. Some lawyers will charge you for an initial meeting, but still do not hesitate to pay this fee for a second or third time to a different lawyer if you are not comfortable with the earlier ones.
