Police Misconduct Lawyer in San Juan County, WAUnderstanding Police Misconduct and Brutality

When law enforcement officers exceed their authority through unwarranted force, misuse of power, or other inappropriate conduct, it constitutes police misconduct. Although the majority of officers perform their duties with integrity and professionalism, incidents of misconduct can lead to life-altering injuries or fatalities.

Moseley Collins Law concentrates on cases where police brutality results in severe, catastrophic injuries. Our practice encompasses cases involving profound physical trauma, including traumatic injuries to the brain that can permanently affect cognitive function and daily life. We also represent clients who have suffered devastating spinal cord injuries leading to paralysis, as well as cases involving multiple fractures and severe bone trauma.

Our firm handles matters involving fatal encounters with law enforcement, representing families who have lost loved ones. Additionally, we take on cases involving serious damage to internal organs and severe nerve injuries that can result in chronic pain or loss of function.

Types of Police Misconduct Cases We Handle

Common examples include:

Excessive Force During Arrests

  • Physical restraints
  • Impact weapons

  • Police dogs
  • Chemical agents
Wrongful Shootings

Cases involving unjustified use of deadly force that results in catastrophic injury or death require extensive investigation and experienced legal representation.
