Police Misconduct

Police officers are expected to uphold the law and protect the rights of the public. When those rights are violated, the consequences can be serious and long-lasting.

Police misconduct cases may involve excessive force, unlawful arrest, improper searches, civil rights violations, or other actions that exceed legal authority. These matters often require careful legal review and a clear understanding of constitutional protections.

TJY Law represents individuals who believe their rights have been violated. The firm evaluates the facts of each situation and determines whether legal action may be appropriate.

Police misconduct matters may include:

  • Excessive or unreasonable use of force
  • False arrest or unlawful detention
  • Improper search and seizure
  • Civil rights violations
  • Abuse of authority

Allegations of misconduct can be complex. Claims may involve federal civil rights law, state law, and strict procedural requirements. Evidence, documentation, and timing are critical in these cases.

How We Help With Police Misconduct Cases

  • Review of the incident and available evidence
  • Evaluation of potential constitutional violations
  • Analysis of body camera footage or reports when available
  • Communication with involved agencies
  • Representation in litigation when necessary

What Should I Do If I Believe My Rights Were Violated?

Write down everything you remember as soon as possible, including dates, times, locations, and names of officers involved. Preserve any evidence such as photographs, videos, or medical records. Avoid discussing the matter publicly until you understand your legal options. Prompt legal evaluation may be important, as strict deadlines can apply to civil rights claims.
