Police Brutalities

Police Brutalities

⦁ No one deserves to be abused by the police.
⦁ Law enforcement officers take an oath to serve and protect our communities. Yet, every year there are more than 500,000 reports of abuse filed by victims of police brutality. Each year it is estimated that more than $100 million is paid out in connection to police misconducts.
⦁ A police officer engages in brutality against a victim when the officer has used excessive force against the victim. However, you must remember that the law provides policemen broad authority to complete their duties. Not every push or shove or form of intimidation by a police officer is an excessive use of force in the eyes of the law. Police officers are also entitled to a qualified immunity defense. This means that a lawsuit against a police officer can be thrown out of court if you do not prove that a clearly established federal law or constitutional right has been violated.
⦁ If you or your loved one has been victimized by a law enforcement officer, you should immediately seek help from an attorney. Taking on the government can seem overwhelming. Our attorneys will be your advocate. We will fight for your rights, guide you throughout the legal process and ensure you receive the justice you deserve.

⦁ Assault & Battery
⦁ Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress
⦁ Sexual Assault
