Police Misconduct Lawyer in Modesto, CA

What Constitutes Police Misconduct?

Not every unpleasant interaction with law enforcement qualifies as misconduct. The key difference lies in whether officers misused their authority in ways that caused serious physical harm. While police have challenging jobs that sometimes require force, crossing the line into brutality is never acceptable.

Examples We Handle

We focus on cases involving severe injuries from incidents like:

  • Officers using excessive force that breaks bones
  • Beatings causing brain injuries
  • Dangerous restraint methods leading to death
  • Unjustified shootings resulting in paralysis
  • Taser misuse causing severe harm
  • Rough arrests causing lasting damage
Our Focus on Life-Changing Injuries

Unlike firms that handle all types of civil rights matters, we concentrate on police brutality cases involving catastrophic injuries such as:

  • Severe head trauma affecting daily function
  • Spinal injuries causing paralysis
  • Multiple fractures requiring surgery
  • Permanent disabilities preventing work
  • Deaths from excessive force
  • Injuries needing lifelong care

This focused approach allows us to dedicate our full resources to helping those most severely harmed by police misconduct.

Waiting too long can hurt your case or even prevent you from filing.

Recognizing Serious Misconduct

Watch for these red flags:

  • Violence without cause
  • Force far beyond what's needed
  • Clear abuse of power
  • Deliberate injury
  • Refusing needed medical care
  • Attempts to hide what happened

These signs often indicate misconduct worth investigating.

Building Your Case

Important evidence includes:

  • All medical records
  • Names of witnesses
  • Injury photographs
  • Available video
  • Official reports
  • Healthcare bills

The more documentation, the stronger your case becomes.
