FIRST AMENDMENT CASEs
Attorney Grossack is one of the few attorneys in
Massachusetts who aggressively pursues cases in
which the violation of client’s First Amendment
rights occurs.
His cases range from situations in which clients
have found themselves in difficulty because of
Internet posts to cases where clients have faced
police or private harassment or even assault because
of controversial expressions of speech.
For example, the Law Offices of David Grossack
represented a South Shore woman who carried a
pro-life sign at a picketing site who was physically
assaulted as a result. She received a financial
settlement for her injury. We also represented a
protestor whose sign opposing gay marriage was
destroyed by police officers. She received a
financial settlement for this civil rights
violation.
A Norfolk man collecting signatures for an
anti-gay marriage ballot referendum who was
assaulted also received a settlement as a result of
Attorney Grossack’s representation.
When a local municipal government tried to
prevent a controversial speaker from appearing at
high school by requiring a “security bond,” Attorney
Grossack raised the issue of the bond requirement
essentially being a “reckless veto” and threatened
suit. The municipality backed down.
It should be pointed out that Attorney Grossack
and the Law Offices of David Grossack, P.C. do not
necessarily endorse the positions of our clients,
only of their right to free expression. Our office
has also had very extensive experience in the adult
entertainment industry, and for many years
represented one of the nation’s largest theatrical
booking agencies.
We are familiar with issues involving obscenity,
“exotic” dancing, zoning and various commercial
aspects of the world of adult entertainment.
Our commitment to the First Amendment and all
constitutional rights, is a heartfelt, long
standing, and integral part of our practice.
