When police officers cross the line and cause serious harm, the impact on victims and their families can be devastating. Here in Menifee, California, too many people have suffered life-changing injuries due to police brutality. At Moseley Collins Law, we focus on helping victims who have experienced catastrophic injuries at the hands of law enforcement.
What Exactly Is Police Misconduct?Police misconduct happens when officers step outside their legal authority and harm citizens. While most police officers serve our community with honor and respect, some abuse their power, leading to serious injuries or death. These cases often leave victims feeling helpless and afraid to speak up.
Types of Police Brutality Cases We HandleWe specifically focus on police brutality cases involving severe, life-altering injuries such as:
- Head trauma and brain injuries that affect daily life
- Spinal injuries leading to partial or complete paralysis
- Multiple broken bones requiring surgery
- Internal injuries causing permanent damage
- Severe nerve damage affecting mobility
- Cases where excessive force led to death
It's important to note that we concentrate only on cases involving serious physical injuries. While other forms of civil rights violations are serious matters, our expertise lies in helping victims who have suffered severe bodily harm from police brutality.
