Police Misconduct Lawyer in Long Beach, CA

What Qualifies as Police Misconduct in Long Beach?

Police misconduct happens when officers step beyond their legal authority and harm citizens they're supposed to protect. While Long Beach has many honorable officers who serve with distinction, those who abuse their power can cause devastating harm to individuals and families.

When misconduct occurs, the Long Beach Police Department's Internal Affairs Division steps in to investigate. But the reality is, victims with serious injuries need their own legal advocate to ensure their rights are protected and they receive fair compensation for their suffering.

The Types of Cases We Handle

  • Permanent organ damage from physical abuse
  • Severe nerve damage causing lasting disability
Common Ways Police Misconduct Occurs

Through our years of experience, we've seen police misconduct cause catastrophic injuries in several ways:

  • Officers using far more force than necessary during arrests
