Human Rights

Human rights questions can arise in criminal, civil, family and administrative proceedings. The Law Office of Emir Gazić reviews available remedies where a client believes that an authority’s decision or conduct has infringed a fundamental right.

Fundamental rights in individual cases

Depending on the circumstances, advice and representation may concern the right to a fair hearing, liberty and security, private and family life, peaceful enjoyment of possessions and other rights protected under the constitutional and international frameworks applicable in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

  • Review of potential rights violations in court and administrative proceedings
  • Protection of procedural rights of suspects, defendants and other parties
  • Available challenges to decisions or actions of public authorities
  • Matters involving personal freedom, privacy, family life and property
  • Assessment of constitutional and international remedies, where available

Deadlines and available remedies

These matters often turn on strict time limits and on which domestic remedies have already been pursued. Not every unfavorable decision amounts to a human rights violation, and not every remedy is available in every case. The office first examines the facts, jurisdiction and procedural position.

What to bring

Relevant decisions, appeals, case records and a timeline of events can help with the initial assessment. Consultations are available in Bosnian and English.
