The Law Office of Thomas C. Seabaugh

Most people who hire an attorney probably never expected to need one. It is the unexpected turn in life that generally brings them to seek legal help. In such circumstances, they want someone skilled in the practice of law to stand up for them, an attorney whom they like and trust, one who will give their situation the time and focused work it deserves.

In my practice, I strive to be like the best doctors, who listen with full attention, provide steady and accurate information, and tirelessly seek the well-being of each person in their care. The best professional endorsement to be had comes from the client, who says, “He is a good lawyer.”

About

From the County of Del Norte on the border with Oregon to San Diego on the border with Mexico, civil rights attorney Thomas C. Seabaugh has represented clients from diverse locales and backgrounds throughout the State of California.

Mr. Seabaugh’s practice consists primarily of civil litigation on behalf of individuals who have been affected by the wrongful conduct of others, including civil rights violations, wrongful death, police brutality, racial discrimination, and other forms of official misconduct and abuse.

Since establishing The Law Office of Thomas C. Seabaugh in early 2016, Mr. Seabaugh has had the honor of representing clients in several cases of local and national significance.

In 2017, Mr. Seabaugh filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of a poet who was wrongfully ticketed for exercising her right to free speech in the City of Palm Springs. In addition to substantial monetary compensation for the victim, the widely publicized settlement includes an agreement that the city will take steps to respect the rights of street performers in the future.
