What are my legal rights after being falsely accused and put in jail?
Question:
I was wrongfully accused of battery against my ex girlfriend. She made several false accusations of me and the bogus evidence she had was somehow able to get me convicted. Months later, she has had a change of heart and new evidence has surfaced which is clearing my name. As a result of this ordeal, I experienced a great deal of emotional trauma. What are my legal rights?

You need to hire an attorney immediately for three reasons:
You should be able to successfully file these claims and lawsuit and recover for all your damages including attorney fees, lost wages as a result of jail time, bail bonds and criminal fines you may have paid, embarrassment for the defamation and humiliation of your name, emotional trauma, and damages covering pain and suffering. The next step would be to clear your criminal record through an expungement process which an attorney can help you navigate and expedite.
