NEW YORK POLICE BRUTALITY LAWYER

Excessive Force

Our New York police brutality lawyers hold law enforcement officers accountable for their use of excessive force. When law enforcement personnel use excessive force on civilians, suspects or prisoners, it can lead to catastrophic injuries. In cases such as these, injury victims and their families may be entitled to compensation from the City of New York. To obtain a successful verdict or settlement in an excessive force case, you need an attorney with the trial experience to take on the City and its attorneys.

The police brutality lawyers at Queller, Fisher, Washor, Fuchs & Kool And The Law Office Of William A. Gallina, LLP are well-versed in handling excessive force claims and officer misconduct claims. We represent individuals who are injured by excessive force, as well as families who have lost loved ones due to police brutality and misconduct.

What Can Happen When The Police Use Excessive Force?

Excessive force is generally defined as an amount of force beyond the need and circumstances of a situation. The use of excessive force or false imprisonment by law enforcement can result in serious or fatal injuries, including:

  • Gunshot Wounds
  • Taser/Stun Gun Injuries
  • Tear Gas Injuries
  • Bites And Other Injuries From Police Dogs
  • Concussions
  • Traumatic Brain Injuries
  • Broken Bones
  • Eye Injuries
  • Neck Injuries
  • Back Injuries
  • Spinal Cord Injuries
  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
  • Wrongful Death

Excessive force by a police officer may be a violation of your civil rights. Our New York police brutality lawyers will investigate the incident and hold the negligent parties accountable for their actions. You may be entitled to collect damages for your medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering.

Bringing a lawsuit against the police and the City is an extremely complex matter that is beyond the abilities of many other law firms. Our police brutality lawyers have decades of experience in these types of cases, however, and are prepared to help you recover the compensation you deserve.
