Police Misconduct Lawyer in Tuolumne County, CA
When police officers cross the line from protecting the public to causing harm, lives can be changed forever. Here in Tuolumne County, families who have experienced serious injuries from police brutality need strong legal support to help them recover and seek justice. At Moseley Collins Law, we focus on helping victims of police misconduct who have suffered life-changing injuries.
What Is Police Misconduct?Think of police misconduct as any situation where an officer steps outside their proper role and causes harm. While officers have the right to use reasonable force when needed, using excessive force that leads to severe injuries is never acceptable. Our firm handles cases involving the most serious injuries from police brutality, including:
- Head trauma and brain injuries that affect daily life
- Spinal injuries that lead to paralysis or limited mobility
- Multiple broken bones and severe fractures
- Cases where someone has died due to police actions
- Major internal injuries requiring surgery
Sometimes people aren't sure if what happened to them counts as police misconduct. Here are some clear examples we've seen:
- Officers using much more force than needed during an arrest
- Using weapons or tasers when there was no real threat
- Refusing to get medical help for someone who's clearly hurt
- Beating or attacking someone who's already in handcuffs
- Deliberately misusing police authority in ways that cause serious harm
