About Police Abuse Cases

Police misconduct litigation is one of the most challenging areas of personal injury law. Every jurisdiction has unique rules regarding notice requirements. Police misconduct can lead to a number of claims based on rights guaranteed by state constitutions, federal statutes, and the United States Constitution.

Victims of police misconduct often sustain substantial physical injuries that require expensive medical treatment and rehabilitation. Under certain circumstances, state and federal law may entitle victims to receive punitive damages calculated to deter future police misconduct.
