Police / Prison Brutality
Violent abuse by law enforcement officers in the United States is one of the most serious and divisive human rights violations in the country. The violations persist nationwide, in rural, suburban, and urban areas of the country, committed by various law enforcement personnel including local and state police, sheriff's departments, federal agents, and prison officials. Law enforcement and prison personnel have engaged in unjustified shootings, severe beatings, fatal chokings, and unnecessarily rough treatment. Furthermore, there are often indications that the instances of abuse are motivated by race, ethnicity, and/or sexual orientation.
The statute of limitations is the time period fixed by law within which a lawsuit must be commenced. After that time period, the victim is prohibited from seeking compensation for injuries sustained from police / prison brutality. Therefore, if you suspect that you or a loved one has been a victim of police / prison brutality, it is critical to seek the advice of a lawyer to be certain that your action is brought within the time period mandated by law.
While the proportion of repeatedly abusive officers on any force is generally small, responsible authorities–including law enforcement supervisors, as well as local and federal government leadership–often fail to act decisively to restrain or penalize such acts. If you think you or a loved one has been the victim of police or prison brutality contact us for a comprehensive professional evaluation of your case. If we feel that your case has merit our aggressive representation will ensure that you receive any and all monetary compensation that you may be legally entitled to.
And don't worry about attorney fees, court costs, or other litigation expenses because we generally advance all money needed to pursue the case and agree to take a percentage of the monetary recovery ultimately obtained for you as a result of negotiation or trial. Furthermore, we get nothing unless we obtain a monetary recovery for you.
