Police Misconduct Lawyer in Berkeley, CA

When police officers cross the line and cause serious injuries, the impact on victims and their families can be devastating. Here in Berkeley and throughout Alameda County, our team at Moseley Collins Law dedicates itself to helping those who have suffered catastrophic injuries due to police brutality. We understand how overwhelming it can be to stand up against law enforcement, and we're here to help you through this difficult time.

Police misconduct happens when officers step outside their legal authority and harm citizens they're supposed to protect. While Berkeley has many dedicated officers who serve with honor, serious incidents of misconduct do occur. These cases can leave victims with life-changing injuries and families mourning the loss of loved ones.

We focus specifically on cases involving severe physical injuries, such as:

• Excessive force that results in broken bones
• Brutal encounters causing brain injuries
• Shootings leading to paralysis or death
• Dangerous restraint methods that cause serious harm
• Improper use of tasers or other weapons causing major injuries

It's important to note that we concentrate on cases involving serious physical injuries. While other forms of police misconduct are serious matters, our expertise lies in helping victims who have suffered catastrophic injuries.

Our legal team brings over 40 years of experience to every case we handle. When you work with us, we:

• Carefully investigate every detail of the incident
• Talk to witnesses while memories are fresh

• Prepare thoroughly for trial if necessary

Each police misconduct case needs strong evidence to succeed. We:

• Gather all available video footage
• Request official police reports and records
• Interview eyewitnesses
• Document how your injuries affect your daily life
