At Moseley Collins Law, we focus exclusively on catastrophic injury cases resulting from police brutality in Truckee and surrounding Nevada County communities. With over 40 years of experience helping injured clients, our team understands the complexities of these sensitive cases.

Police misconduct encompasses situations where law enforcement personnel exceed their legal authority or fail to fulfill their sworn duties to protect and serve. These incidents can involve excessive physical force, deliberate abuse of power, or other serious violations of established protocols. Although the majority of law enforcement professionals maintain high standards of conduct and ethics, incidents of misconduct can have severe consequences, potentially resulting in life-altering injuries or fatalities for those affected.

The most serious forms of police misconduct include:

• Use of excessive force leading to broken bones, brain trauma, or paralysis
• Improper restraint techniques causing suffocation or positional asphyxia
• Misuse of tasers, pepper spray, or impact weapons resulting in severe injury
• Vehicle pursuit crashes causing catastrophic harm to bystanders
• Failure to provide necessary medical care to detainees
