Welcome to KnowMyRights.org
Know My Rights™ is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote social change through civil rights and other legal education.
Ignorance of our criminal law is never an excuse, and ignorance of civil procedures can prove itself very costly.
Too many people possess neither the knowledge nor the means to assert their legal rights properly. Unfortunately, what our laws were supposed to be, what they are, and how they're actually enforced are sometimes three very different things. It is our sincere hope that by educating people about these facts of law and life, and how some situations play themselves out in the real world, that they will be better equipped to properly assert themselves and their legal rights when necessary.
