Police Misconduct Lawyer in Orange County, CA

Experiencing mistreatment by law enforcement can be traumatic and confusing. In Orange County, many residents find themselves unsure where to turn when their rights have been violated by police officers. Having a knowledgeable legal team on your side can make all the difference in seeking justice and accountability.

Police misconduct occurs when law enforcement officers abuse their power or fail to fulfill their duties properly, resulting in violations of citizens' rights and serious physical harm. While most officers serve honorably, instances of excessive force and brutality continue to cause devastating injuries to civilians.

We focus on cases involving catastrophic injuries from police brutality, including:

• Traumatic brain injuries
• Spinal cord damage leading to paralysis
• Multiple broken bones
• Severe internal organ damage
• Wrongful death

Common indicators of police misconduct resulting in serious injury include:

• Use of excessive or unreasonable force
• Physical assault during arrest
• Unnecessary use of weapons or restraints
• Failure to provide medical care for injuries
• Purposeful indifference to medical needs
