Take Action Against Police Misconduct

Studies show that police brutality is on the rise. In just one year, there were nearly 6,000 incidences of police brutality reported and more than $347 million paid in related settlements. Police officers may be enforcers of the law, but they aren’t above the law. If a police officer uses excessive force, makes a false arrest, or wrongfully shoots someone, they must be held accountable.

Types of Police Brutality and Misconduct

Police officers are subject to legal consequences, just like everyone else. When their authority leads to serious injuries, or worse, death, you and your family could be eligible for financial compensation. Here are some examples of ways police officers may abuse their authority:

  • Excessive force
  • Sexual assault
  • Taser injuries
  • Racial profiling
  • Wrongful shootings
  • Illegal search and seizure
  • Forced confessions
  • False imprisonment
  • Prison abuse

It is also illegal for police officers to deny basic constitutional rights, such as the right to remain silent; the right to refuse consent to a search of yourself, your car, or your home; the right to leave if you are not under arrest; and the right to an attorney.

Don’t let bad behavior from law enforcement destroy your life. You have rights, whether you’re a citizen or not. Victims of police brutality and misconduct have relied on 1-800-THE-LAW2 to find high-quality legal representation for more than 30 years.
