Liability Overview

Liability Considerations in Birmingham

Jefferson County operates its own juvenile detention center in addition to state DYS facilities. Claims against county facilities proceed under Alabama tort law with potential Section 1983 overlay for constitutional violations. The Alabama Tort Claims Act provides limited immunity to government entities but does not bar claims for willful abuse. Birmingham-area attorneys handle both state tort and federal civil rights claims. SOL: age 25 for childhood sexual abuse; 2-year SOL for Section 1983.
